Messier 86 (also known as M86 or NGC 4406) is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation Virgo. Messier 86 is linked by several filaments of ionized gas to the severely disrupted spiral galaxy NGC 4438 (on the right side of my image), indicating that M86 may have stripped some gas and interstellar dust from the spiral. Messier 86 has a rich array of globular clusters, with a total number of around 3,800. Its halo also has a number of stellar streams interpreted as remnants of dwarf galaxies that have been disrupted and absorbed by this galaxy. (ref: Wikipedia).

A winding path leads to the famous lighthouse at Peggy’s Cove, Nova Scotia, Canada, as the setting sun cast golden rays across the sky.
Today, as Canadians head to the polls, may we find leadership that, like this lighthouse, stands firm and lights the way through uncertain seas.

no this is not the complete Maximilian von Montegla, nor it's himself, This is just a very small part of his colossal statue standing at the Promenadenplatz in Munich. This is the only piece of art, there are at least five of them. The most curios one, the di-Lasso-statue dar, or as it called in Munich the Michael Jackson statue. Still today there are fresh flowers, pictures and small gifts from his fans. Just because Michael used to stay at the Bayerischer Hof.
The funny part of the picture, we went there with some friends to photograph the lights of the Promenadenplatz, and try something new. For example manual mode, tripod always the same position, just change the white balance. I looked at the pictures, the light very different on each picture. Just did not get it. But the answer from our guide Chris was simple. The lights were on automatic timers, going dark to bright within a short time. But not all of them at the same time, this would be to easy. But this is another story.
The real story, we are packing up, because we want to get some Glühwein, mulled wine, since it's close to christmas evening. So standing there, ready stow away camera, tripod and other stuff, the last couple of pictures, yes guessed rigth Maximillian
Everything there is to know and some more

Who could resist such a beautiful smile.... certainly not me! She is one of hundreds of college kids that 'work' Alaska during the summer, saving money, having adventures and honing their public / people skills.
I didn't get a chance to get her name... we were interrupted by others with questions about the tours. With a smile like that.... she will do well in this world!
