This glittering ball of stars is the globular cluster NGC 1898, which lies towards the centre of the Large Magellanic Cloud — one of our closest cosmic neighbours. The Large Magellanic Cloud is a dwarf galaxy that hosts an extremely rich population of star clusters, making it an ideal laboratory for investigating star formation.
Discovered in November 1834 by British astronomer John Herschel, NGC 1898 has been scrutinised numerous times by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. Today we know that globular clusters belong to the oldest known objects in the Universe and that they are relics of the first epochs of galaxy formation. While we already have a pretty good picture on the globular clusters of the Milky Way — still with many unanswered questions — our studies on globular clusters in nearby dwarf galaxies just started. The observations of NGC 1898 will help to determine if their properties are similar to the ones found in the Milky Way, or if they have different features, due to being in a different cosmic environment.
This image was taken by Hubble’s Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) and Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3). The WFC3 observes light ranging from near-infrared to near-ultraviolet wavelengths, while the ACS explores the near-infrared to the ultraviolet.

A lucky shot with my GoPro taken at the right moment when the camera was half in and half out of the water... and yes, that is a small fish in the bottom left of the frame.

A teenage girl lying on a hammock pauses from watching a video clip on her smartphone to take a brief but good look at the photographer who appeared suddenly to take a candid shot of her and her girl friend (about same age as her) who is beside her and watching the same video.

I’m throwing a full-on 50% OFF everything at [Umi] through 12/1 — surfboards, body boards, snowboards… all of it. If it rides, slides, or flies across water and snow, it’s half off.
And if you’ve ever wanted to learn but didn’t know where to start — find me inworld and I’ll give you a private lesson. No pressure, no stress, just good lines and good vibes.
Let’s ride.
Mist, having already ascended a mountain called Haystacks that morning, wasn't all that keen on 'extra's' that involved getting back in the car only to be driven somewhere else for another walk .. hence at every opportunity she was hedging her bets and doing her 'expression of exasperation' which involved moping along 20m behind me and lying down at every opportunity indicating that '.... I'm alright now .. I've had my walkies for the day so in Mist's world we can go home now!' ?! As soon as I turned for home she was as happy as Larry and at least 50m in front gambling and playing around .. little madame!
Lake Wales is a city in Polk County, Florida. The population was 14,225 at the 2010 census. As of 2019, the population estimated by the U.S. Census Bureau is 16,759. It is part of the Lakeland–Winter Haven Metropolitan Statistical Area. Lake Wales is located in central Florida, west of Lake Kissimmee and east of Tampa.
The land around the present city was surveyed in 1879 by Sidney Irving Wailes, who changed the name of a lake, then known as Watts Lake, to Lake Wailes.
The city of Lake Wales was established near the lake in 1911–12, planned by the Lake Wales Land Company. The spelling Wales was used for the city, although the lake is still generally spelled Lake Wailes. Allen Carleton Nydegger, a Civil Engineer, was contracted by the Lake Wales Land Company to plot out the community of Lake Wales. He and his crew camped on the shores of Crystal Lake and spent months plotting out the new community. In 1925 the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad built a new line from Haines City joining lines to Everglades City. A depot was opened on this line at Lake Wales. The City of Lake Wales was officially incorporated in April 1917.
In 2004, Lake Wales endured the effects of three hurricanes which came through the area: Hurricane Charley, Hurricane Frances and Hurricane Jeanne. The three hurricanes brought hurricane-force winds to the Lake Wales area within a space of 44 days. In 2017, Hurricane Irma brought more hurricane-force winds to Lake Wales.
The town lies near the geographical center of the Florida peninsula. Lake Wales is located on the Lake Wales Ridge,[8] a sandy upland area running roughly parallel to both coasts in the center of the peninsula. According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 14.0 square miles (36 km2), of which 13.4 square miles (35 km2) is land and 0.7 square miles (1.8 km2) (4.71%) is water.
Lake Wales is located in the humid subtropical zone of the (Köppen climate classification: Cfa). In 2004, the eyes of Hurricanes Charley, Frances and Jeanne all passed near the town. Virtually all physical damage has been restored.
Local attractions in the area include:
*Bok Tower Gardens
*Camp Mack's River Resort
*Spook Hill, an optical illusion which makes a car in neutral appear as if it is traveling uphill (gravity hill)
*The commercial historic district in the heart of the old town contains important examples of architecture from the period of the Florida land boom of the 1920s. The district's tallest building, the Hotel Grand, has been boarded up for many years but has been purchased and is in the process of being restored.
*The Lake Wales Museum and Cultural Center is a history museum funded by a public-private partnership. It offers exhibits and artifacts from the pre-Columbian era to modern.
*Grove House, the visitor's center for the agricultural cooperative Florida's Natural (located across from the company's processing plant).
*Chalet Suzanne This attraction has closed.

They were just playing together and then they wanted to calm down a bit, in a funny and cute position!
I wanted to do a series of shots with my Mary Jane Watson inspired outfit, and loved this color scheme!

The city of Nam Dinh wakes up to a stunning sunrise as seen through a gap in the Lying Dragon Mountains. The name "Lying Dragon," reflects its shape, which resembles a dragon lying in repose - a powerful symbol in Vietnamese culture representing strength, protection, and prosperity.
Queued up with a foggy lens at Taft Station. Although it's not seen in the picture, people are restrained by a rope to prevent us from just spilling over when the train arrives
under a nice bit of Spring greenery at the park
surprisingly Saxon a little more relaxed looking than Biscuit :-)
another one from yesterdays morning park visit
"Fekvő férfi", a work by László Marton, erected as a side-figure of the fountain-park in front of the main building of Debrecen University, in 1965. Marton's most popular creation, erected at the walking space of the Pest Danube, can be found here. - More sculptures of this park are still to come.
