Re: CSS circular image

It's not pure CSS, but it's possible by drawing to the canvas layer in
html5 with javascript.
It's available for all browsers too (
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/CanvasRenderingContext2D/arc
)

HTML:
<canvas></canvas>
<img src="https://www.spring.org.uk/images/crowd2.jpg" id="image1"
class="loadimage" />

CSS:
..loadimage {display:none;}

Javascript:
const canvas = document.querySelector('canvas');
const ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.arc(100, 75, 50, 0, 2 * Math.PI);
ctx.clip();
ctx.drawImage(image1, 0, 0, 350, 150);

I made an very quick-and-dirty example here:
