Thank you to @vincent24 for hosting bw-32, and to everyone who voted for my stairs photo!

It's great to be hosting the next challenge, and I have chosen curves as the theme.

Please tag your photos bw-33

The challenge starts 23rd September and ends on 11th October.

You may interpret the theme as you wish, providing you submit a black and white photo that was taken within the given dates.
