A green fireball that came from space was captured on camera, briefly illuminating an erupting volcano in the Philippines -- making for spectacular footage.
Many photographers will remember the massive controversy Adobe found itself embroiled in nearly two years ago when photographers noticed just how invasive and overreaching the company's updated Terms of Use were.

One of my favorite zoom lenses of all time is the Sony 20-70mm f/4. Just the fact that a versatile range can be coupled with an ultra-wide-angle field-of-view brings a lot of convenience to the camera bag.
