Turnagain Arm and Cook Inlet on a somewhat low tide. Taken on the Turnagain Arm Trail, East of the Potter Trailhead, located just southeast of Anchorage, Alaska.

NGC 4618 was discovered on 9 April 1787 by the German-British astronomer, Wilhelm Herschel, who also discovered Uranus in 1781. Only a year before discovering NGC 4618, Herschel theorised that the “foggy” objects astronomers were seeing in the night sky were likely to be large star clusters located much further away then the individual stars he could easily discern.
Since Herschel proposed his theory, astronomers have come to understand that what he was seeing was a galaxy. NGC 4618, classified as a barred spiral galaxy, has the special distinction amongst other spiral galaxies of only having one arm rotating around the centre of the galaxy.
Located about 21 million light-years from our galaxy in the constellation Canes Venatici, NGC 4618 has a diameter of about one third that of the Milky Way. Together with its neighbour, NGC 4625, it forms an interacting galaxy pair, which means that the two galaxies are close enough to influence each other gravitationally. These interactions may result in the two (or more) galaxies merging together to form a new formation, such as a ring galaxy.

The light was good last Friday when we arrived at our hotel near Queenstown. I put off the unpacking for a few minutes. This is the view from near our room.
Thanks for your visit!
Sunset along the upper end of Turnagain arm. The cloud inversion alomost looks like a down comforter.
a7s + CZJ Biotar 25/2 M28
This Biotar 25/2 is a cine lens with an uncommon M28 screw mount. I don't know what movie camera (probably Russian) it was used on. Coverage is somewhere in between APS-C and FF.
Just an arm based on an Dark Souls 2 armor, I'm not convinced by the hand, seem too big and can't take weapon...
On day 4 of my eagle photo workshop, we headed out in a covered boat in the rain hoping to find orcas or whales. We pulled into Frederick Arm as the rain paused and took this opportunity to stop and enjoy the views. There were lots of low lying clouds obscuring the mountains creating a mysterious mood. Not much colour so I converted this shot to black and white.
Cold wrists
My first pair of arm warmers were a gift from my sister. At first, I was confused about how to style them. It only took one wearing to discover that they are more practical than gloves and a great option to extend elbow-length sleeves. (And it doesn’t hurt that they are cute!)
I ordered some rainbow striped socks and they came with matching arm warmers! (I’m not wearing the matching socks, here.) This sweater has slightly cropped sleeves and pushing them up really showcases my striped forearms.
