In the center is the "deer", NGC 7331. Above it and far in the background are the "fleas", from left to right: NGC 7337, NGC 7340, NGC 7335, and NGC 7336.

NGC 7331
I compared two of my recent galaxy photos to higher-resolution images to see how many background galaxies I'd picked up.
Looks like I got quite a few. Each circled bit of fuzz is a galaxy, on the order of 400 million light years away.
Spectacular image of the spiral galaxy NGC 7331 captured by the Hubble Space Telescope. It’s located around 45 million light-years from Earth, residing in the constellation Pegasus.
I don’t know about you, but this is one of the sexiest pictures of a galaxy I’ve ever seen. This galaxy knows it’s fine af—showing off its lovely and colorful swirling arms. Fuck me.

Hubble’s Majestic Spiral in Pegasus by NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center Via Flickr: This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image shows a spiral galaxy known as NGC 7331. First spotted by the prolific galaxy hunter William Herschel in 1784, NGC 7331 is located about 45 million light-years away in the constellation of Pegasus (the Winged Horse). Facing us partially edge-on, the galaxy showcases its beautiful arms, which swirl like a whirlpool around its bright central region. Astronomers took this image using Hubble’s Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3), as they were observing an extraordinary exploding star — a supernova — near the galaxy’s central yellow core. Named SN 2014C, it rapidly evolved from a supernova containing very little hydrogen to one that is hydrogen-rich — in just one year. This rarely observed metamorphosis was luminous at high energies and provides unique insight into the poorly understood final phases of massive stars. Image Credit: ESA/Hubble & NASA/D.
