Fishy Sunset. I’ve decided to add a fisheye lens to my repertoire, and after it arrived yesterday, I tried it out with some test shots, concluding that it seems to work just fine. And then, while I was outside cooking dinner on the old barbie, I noticed that Mother Nature was presenting a fine scene with which the new lens could strut its stuff.

Tech info: Nikon D850 camera with Nikon 8-15mm fisheye lens at 14mm, 1/125 sec. at f8, ISO 250.
