This stream of stars embedded in cosmic clouds is part of Caldwell 32, also cataloged as NGC 4631 and commonly called the Whale galaxy. Our edge-on view of this galaxy masks the spiral arms that extend outward into space, each overflowing with sparkling stars. The “belly” of the whale (on the left side of the image) is the galactic center, which is lit up by stars bursting into life along with gas that has been heated from supernova explosions. This bright light silhouettes bands of dense, darker material that lie between us and the Whale galaxy’s bright core.
In the Whale galaxy’s “tail” (on the right side of the image) there is less dust but still areas of bright blue star formation, driven by interactions with neighboring galaxies. As gas and dust from different galaxies meet in space, denser areas are created, which gravity compacts into new stars. This Hubble image, taken with the Advanced Camera for Surveys, shows an area that is about 140,000 light-years across. Hubble’s observations provide the opportunity to explore this galaxy in visible and near-infrared light, which, combined with X-ray observations from other telescopes, allow scientists to develop a more complete picture of ongoing galactic processes.
Similar in size to the Milky Way, the Whale galaxy is a located about 25 million light-years away in the Canes Venatici constellation. It is one of the many Caldwell objects discovered by astronomer William Herschel. It has a magnitude of 9.2, requiring large binoculars or a telescope to see it. As one of the brighter Caldwell galaxies, it is a favorite among observers. Late spring skies in the Northern Hemisphere (or autumn in the Southern Hemisphere) will provide an optimal view of the Whale galaxy.

Beth: these clothes are as clean as they're going to get! where do we search for Lizzy first?
Ciri: oh, no. you can't defend yourself against weak bandits. we've been needing an archer
Beth: so you're going to teach me archery?
Ciri: neither of us rely on bows. we're going to see Angi, south of Falkreath
(I retextured the plain miner's outfit. that filth was bothering me)
I'm finding myself in golden hours all the time
life goes in slow motion during these moments of perfected light.
keeping track of days of a year by taking a photograph makes me realize how quickly days go by in general.
life is far too short...
I think I will do a stop motion soon.
I've been craving it.

Holes In Socks!
Holes are good in donuts
and for putting keys in locks.
Holes are good in some things,
but holes aren’t good in socks.
Holes taste great in swiss cheese.
We need holes for wearing rings.
But how do holes get in my socks?
Holes belong in OTHER things!
Holes work fine in inner tubes
and to put mail inside the box.
Holes work fine in things like that
but holes don’t work in socks!
Holes make scissors cut right
and open pockets for my rocks.
I DO need holes in special things,
but who needs holes in socks?
Holes have to be in noses
and our ears to hear friends talk.
Holes have to be in body parts,
but WHO put HOLES in socks?
Holes do let the puddles fill
to splash in on our walks,
but HOLES IN SOCKS JUST GRAB MY TOES ...
I Hate Holes In Socks!

I came home to change my socks out of holy ones, but realized later the pair I grabbed also has holes....silly me :P
