New Old Film Challenge #217, Ambiguous: Poll added

[ChrisR]

Let's see some old photos which are ambiguous; while still interesting photos, the viewer (at least at first glance) might be confused as to what is represented here.

As usual the following rules apply:

- Must be taken by you
- Must be on film
- Must have been taken, developed and scanned 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.

Entries close at 23:59 on 7th September (!) 2023 (or thereabouts), to be followed by 3 days for the poll after that.

Please keep all discussion and chit chat in the discussion thread. https://www.talkphotography.co.uk/t...discussion-thread.698995/page-17#post-9365584

Poll now added, vote for your favourite 3 (not your own) ambiguous photos (didn't add the subject for that reason!).

Seems like a draw between me and @FishyFish , so I reckon my recent turn on #214 would pretty much make it Nige's turn for this one?

 

[Flighter]

Congratulations both!

 

[ChrisR]

Well done both. Late run up the inside there, Peter!

Thanks Peter, that's very kind of you. I'll get thinking.

Well done both of you.
The Bridge to Nowhere is great, I recall seeing other pictures of the same subject and been fascinated by it.

Thanks. It looks different at various stages of the tide, and here's another view looking landward.
