Thanks to pegelli for keeping this thread going and for the comments.

All this encourages me to expand my 'repertoire' to include the Venus Optics Laowa 10mm f/2.8 Zero-D FF Autofocus Lens.

But that will happen next year!
Sony a7R4, a6400. E, A and MD lenses.

Between work and bad weather (cold and rainy but no snow), my efforts do not compare with the artistry shown so far in this thread. This is the Rokinon (Samyang) 8mm F3.5-HD, the later version with removable hood.

This lens is available in several mounts, including e-mount, but is purely manual with no communication with the camera ... except for the F-mount version, which has AI features and a chip. This particular lens is an F-mount lens I use with an adapter for my Sony, as well as a full-featured manual focus lens on my old Nikons.


Addendum: I realized my first set was not properly focused, so this is a technically better set:
