Peter, this looks to be an excellent wide angle - in #1 I see detail in the distant grass as well as the brick up close.

Peter, do you realy need "our" comments to know that it was a good purchase  ......
It's look like simply an excellent wide angle in all point of view (sharpness, distortion, vigneting, etc....), at least on my eyes  !

Peter,
You can do wonders with an old coke bottle, but this does seem to be an outstanding lens (not just good). Looks at least as good as my nikkor 20

I don't understand why everyone insists that I can do well with a coke bottle. I'm not an outstanding photographer. I just happen to know how and where to focus and how to make a composition. For what it's worth: more often than not I'm envious about the results from other talended photographers on this forum... I've seen excellent street work, superb panoramas, great nude photography - all of which I'm not experienced in.
So keep up the good work, guys!
