I was at a loss coming up with a theme - and wanted to avoid creating one that would be done just to give me an opportunity to post.

So I used ChatGPT and this one stood out.

Everyday objects.
Create still life compositions of mundane objects, exploring their textures, colours or arrangement to find beauty in the ordinary.

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.

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

Entries until EOP on Monday 11th Nov.

Please keep all discussion and comments in the "new old film discussion thread" https://www.talkphotography.co.uk/t...discussion-thread.698995/page-21#post-9521968

Even with all of the unwanted available time during lockdown, I still never managed to get this Anniversary Clock to operate for anything more than an hour or so. I eventually cut my losses and shot a selfie with contemplative look for the 2021 FPOTY. Bronica SQ-B, Ilford FP4+, old (but previously unopened) DD-X.

I'm kind of fascinated by street furniture. The stuff that we all walk past every day and take no notice of.

Struggling to work out whether I missed my focus or the cover has been so worn by thousands of feet, that it will always look blurry. I'll let you decide.

Minolta X500 + Minolta 35-70/3.5 + Ilford XP2

Coffee making.

(I still use the mug and swiss-gold filter, but I've upgraded to a powered grinder! Beans come from Monsoon Estates.)

Pentax MX, Agfa Vista 400 (Fuji Superia XTRA 400 AFAIK), probably Filmdev. Focus merge with Affinity Photo.
 
I guess that’s over then

Thanks for all the entries.

How do I ser up the first post into a poll?

At the top-right of the first post you'll see something like this:

Click the three dots and you'll get an option to create a poll.

Remember to set it to close after three days, and limit votes to three per person. Like this (although with different voting choices :)):

I've added a Notice to encourage voting
 
Thanks all.

Unfortunately, I'm not in a position to kick off a new competition at present, so I'd like to pass it over to the runner up @Peter B (assuming that's ok with you Peter?).
I can take this on Nige. I’ll have a think about this and hopefully come up with a topic later today.
