A Sunday Funny Supplemental (Banned in Boston?)



Laowa has officially unveiled its next-generation Probe Zoom system, which it states is "the worldβs widest macro probe lens with the broadest focal range ever made." Designed for cinematic and high-end commercial work, the new 15-24mm T8 and 15-35mm T12 macro lenses expand the companyβs well-known probe lineup with a wider focal range, increased flexibility, and a modular design built around extreme close-up imaging.

Renewed violence β a kind that has never been fully extinguished in Colombia β marks the presidential campaign to choose Gustavo Petroβs successor. In many places, the first-round vote this Sunday will take place under crossfire. Nearly 10 years after the signing of the historic peace accord with the now-defunct FARC guerrilla organization, other armed actors threaten communities and the war still burns, albeit in a more fragmented phase. The humanitarian consequences of the armed conflict have reached βthe most serious level of the last decade,β the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) warned this month. Amid that crisis, public security has become one of the main concerns.
