Is there anything like a comic book scientist? I remember a while back someone calculated how much food the flash would have to eat to maintain speed. More questions inside. Thank you. in c/comicbooks@lemmy.world

Check out The Physics of Superheroes. It's a fun read.

One small bit of related advice: if you're using both a lens with stabilization and a tripod, make sure to turn stabilization off while it's mounted on the tripod.

It's somewhat counter-intuitive, I know, but I've found that if it's left on, the lens tries to compensate, and the resulting images are a bit blurry / shaky.

Good Morning, Smoke (europe.pub)
 

Wildfire smoke still pretty strong here in Vancouver. This is a viewpoint from Burnaby Mountain, looking north towards Deep Cove and Indian Arm.

Summer Greens (europe.pub)
 

Took a walk around Cliff Falls Park in Maple Ridge this morning. Might be worth a re-visit in the fall, once the water flow is stronger.

Secret Exit (europe.pub)
 

Finally got a shot of this odd door near Cleveland Dam in Capilano Canyon this morning. I'm not sure what it's for... presuming it's an emergency exit or something similar.
