#255 'Things that are round, curved or bent'

Everything from tangerines to tennis balls, wheels to whirlpools and hooks to horseshoes, you all know how this works.

As usual the following rules apply:

- Must be taken by you
- Must have been taken on film
- Must have been taken and developed prior to the start date of this challenge.
- Discussion in the discussion thread (link below) rather than this Entries thread, please.
- Shoehorning and even Crowbars are positively encouraged!

Please include details of the camera, lens, emulsion and anything else of relevance if you can possibly remember that far back.

One Entry per person only.

Open for entries for 7 daysEntries close at 23:59 on 8th March2025(or thereabouts), to be followed by 3'ish days for the poll after that.

Please keep all discussion and chit chat in the discussion thread: https://www.talkphotography.co.uk/t...allenge-discussion-thread.698995/post-9389603

The shaft of light shining on the altar was an unexpected bonus, I did't see it until the film was processed.

Pentax MX, SMC Pentax A 35mm f/2, orange filter Lomo Potsdam 100 (believed to be ORWO UN54), home devved in HC-110 dilution E (1+47).
 
The wonderfully unpredictable Impossible Project film, this one demonstrates a complete failure to reproduce an image but I'm pretty sure the addition of the tiny penny farthing makes it admissible according to the "shoehorning" rules. Polaroid SX70, Impossible Project film, Cornwall, May 2017 (Another awesome F&C week away).
