But back to the first image; what happened to the clouds? Looks almost like a GIF? Over processed?
I processed it with photoshop: menubar - image- then calculate then multiply to make it dramatically

the k1 I tried with other objectives and does not seem to have suffered damage, as I write I'm waiting for the courier that will bring the monster in assistance, I will inform you of what happens ...

Sorry about that.
Weird that it is showing up. What aperture was the image with your niece taken with.
I have some evil scratches on my 28-105 and I only see problems when I am past f/13. And my damage seems worse than that. At f/13 I see some darkness in some spots. Nothing like your image which seems to be an actual representation of how the damage on the front element looks like.
in fact, the photo was taken at f14, perhaps at larger openings the damage is seen much less ... but to drop a lens like that after not even a week of life is not beautiful
