Argus Auto-Cintar 55mm 1.7, M42. Shot at dusk.

Perhaps one of the lower budget lenses I found at a pawn shop, but I fell for it's bokeh early on, and interesting rendering. Fairly good wide open, has narrow dof, as you'll see as all of the following shots are taken wide open.

Fuji X-E2. Minor Adjustments in LR to contrast and Clarity. +10 on each.

A Cosina-made lens most likely, with a similar derivation as those of Ricoh, Mamiya and other second-tier makers. These are always very good lenses in my experience.
