Photo 1 and Photo 2 do make it look like you have indeed bent the forks or the frame might be creased slightly.

have you got any better pics of the damage: ding/s and the front end possible bent forks / creased headtube?
-

yeah v. small crease at the downtube - headtube lug. can't really tell if / how bent the forks are at present, can take them out and have a look.
clearances are around 1cm tighter than should be.
will get some better pics of the crease, not sure how well it'll show, can just about feel it, you're welcome to come and have a look in person

Bump!
Couple more images,
The pic below shows - as best as it can- the crease in the tube. It's minute, can just about feel it.
The main damage is to the forks - shown below. The paint has come up off the metal where has been bent back slightly.
About half a cm clearance to the down tube, and slightly more toe overlap than should have. Not noticed except on the slower sharp corners.

Hi JontyBottomley, can you whrite me an email,i want to buy a frameset.tnx. center-casual@mail.ru
Hey all,
Funds are low and this isn't getting the use it deserves so up for sale is my Bridgestone
Overall good condition - a couple of small dings, paint chips and small patches of rust, always kept inside and never used on rainy days.
Very nice bike, stiff, very quick, light, very compact - super tight clearances.
Couple of negatives - large toe overlap, generally this is fine though notice it when turning at slower speeds, can get a bit of a shock when your feet clip the wheel.
There are a few chips in the paint - cosmetic only.
Has** had one crash **when got knocked off by a sudden cross wind on one of those really windy days of november resulting in **a small ding at the lug joining the head tube and down tube and * I think it's bent the forks by a small amount...*** I've ridden it frequently since and still rides beautifully.
