This photo is very surreal. It looks almost like an allusion, where the chess board is farther away from the two men and you are shooting across it, but then you look more closely and it's a giant chess board!

You captured a good moment. The two men look very much into playing chess, the one active pointing, and the other one contemplating with his cigar. Very good.

As usual JJ, you have an incredible eye.

Peace be.
Lee

Yeah, this looks great. I like the burning and dodging.

I really like the contrast and levels on this one. And I can just imagine those two arguing moves all day long...

Nice bit of journalism here. It's spoilt a bit though by the editing (perhaps combined with shadow/hilight filter) and the skewed angle anticlockwise.

Good viewpoint and composition, and especially nice capture of subjects' discussion.

Congratulations. This may be the first time I have given a 10 to a chess photo and it is well deserved. Going in my favorites. Are you Pedro or have you just been reading his tutorial? :)
