Elbows Crouch close to cameras (5)
I believe the answer is:
bends
'elbows' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'crouch close to cameras' is the wordplay.
'crouch' becomes 'bend' (I've seen this before).
'close to' suggests the final letters (the 'close' to the word).
The final letter of 'cameras' is 's'.
'bend'+'s'='BENDS'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for bends that I've seen before include "deadly to the diver" , "Decompression sickness" , "Road curves" , "Painful divers' condition" , "Buckles" .)
