Thanks to @skullfunkerry for the new theme. As always, shoehorns and crowbars permitted and even expected
Rules are, as before, almost the same as for the film version but slightly tweaked:

- Entries must be taken by you
- Must be taken on a digital camera of some sort (not a digital scan of a film neg)
- Must have been taken and post-processed prior to the start date of the challenge ie in this case before Sunday 9th November 2025
- Please include details of the camera, lens, and anything else of relevance if you can possibly remember that far back, and if linking to Flickr etc please leave exif available to view
- One Entry per person
- Discussion in the discussion thread rather than the Entries thread, please.
- Shoehorning and even Crowbars are positively encouraged!

Entries will close approximately three weeks after the challenge starts, at 23:59 on 30th November 2025 and voting will be open for 5 days after that. The winner gets to set the next challenge.

Entries only in this thread please
 
All metal and coal!
This is a shot from a steam fair we stayed at last year at the Shuttleworth Museum last year, just love these old things!
Taken on my now OM-1MarkII with 12-40mm F2.8 II @ f6.3 ISO200 1/400th at the 12mm wide end. Just noticed it looks much sharper on flickr.

Artemis taken with Canon EOS 40D and Tokina AT-X 124 PRO DX 12-24mm F4. July 2010.
A family paid about £1m to buy this huge sculpture of a horse's head and transported it from Sussex where this photo was taken to Australia.
Artemis was created by artist Nic Fiddian-Green.
Click to see just how large this head is. ;)
