Fun solve.

Really this isn't impossible. You can make it as a real object. I can send you a photo of that. The object is REAL, the photo is real, too!!!

Sure, but it requires a photography trick and only works from one angle.

I like the way you differentiated the 3 sides in black & white. I've seen lots of these in color, but this is the first B/W Penrose triangle I've solved. :)
It made the puzzle more interesting, too!

"it requires a photography trick"
No.
"and only works from one angle."
Yes. But it's not a photography trick, cause it's work in real object, too.
There are two ways to make the Penrose triangle illusion about a real 3D object.
1. Make the illusion that is an infinitive "ring"
2. Make the illusion that it has got planes excusively.
