We had a Thunderstorm last night and I was awake to shoot some lightning.

The first is from the Pentax K-1 and Pentax 15-30 zoom lens. I used the Strike finder 2 to trigger the shutter and the 2nd was shot using my Samsung Galaxy 23 Ultra and the Lightning Camera App.

Both were processed in Lightroom.

Not my pix, but the Philadelphia Inquirer captured these of the smoke that settled over the city this past week.

Those dimly visible lights are a 757 descending into Philadelphia International Airport.

To use the Inky's own description, "The sun goes down behind “The Punter” statue located on the perimeter of a Citizens Bank Park parking lot."

Fans at Citizens Bank Park during the Phillies-Tigers game on Tuesday night. The Wednesday night game was postponed to Thursday due to the smoke. They played Thursday, even though health conditions were barely better, if at all.

Be safe out there. The Major suggests that you consult the EPA website to check air conditions where you live.

I replaced my old Neweer macro rail with a Nisi macro rail and decided to try it out last night.

Here's a 40 image focus stack of a lock keyway at 2.5x magnification. Pentax K-1 and Venus Laowa 2.5x-5x ultra macro f/2.8 lens.

What I found interesting is uou don't get a feel for the depth the 1st pin is set in. I might have to play with my lighting to show it better.
