As for this being my first photo entered on dpchallenge I am very pleased with the results. I lost to my sister by .033. And to think I was leading her all week.

Thank you all for the great comments and support.

Like the title, very clever.

Interesting idea. Composition is a little tight at the top. I'd have shot at a slightly higher angle to give the chess pieces some more room and avoid the oof leading edge of the board. BG (carpeted wall?) is too busy, IMO. More contrast would be good to take advantage of the B/W.

Neat idea matching the two old games against each other. You almost covered the grey scale and you could have had a little more contrast. Good job though.

to out of focus
05/23/2002 02:55:00 PM
an interesting concept of the two games

very different,,,, I LIKE!!!

Good perspective here... i would like it a little more if the front corner checker piece was in a little sharper focus... good job!
05/22/2002 07:57:00 AM
Heheheh... I like this interpretation, and the shot is well-executed, too!

I really like the focus and composition of this. It's great the way the chess pieces appear to be "waiting" in the distance...

I like the use of B&W with this photo. For some reason I am not a fan of the center of focus being in the middle of the picture.

This is a good picture, but the front piece is out of focus. But I like the idea.
05/20/2002 07:56:00 PM
very much like my one (Chequemate)

Good, good DOF, nice composition. GOOD.
05/20/2002 01:24:00 PM
this photo would be stronger if the front piece was in focus.
05/20/2002 12:57:00 PM
Great idea, though I don't think the black n white really works for the subject. I think the red/black colors are necessary so people can relate to the checkers.

I like this "West Side Story" theme. wish it was a little crisper, but I like it. good job.
05/20/2002 06:19:00 AM
You can hear them growling at each other!
05/20/2002 02:49:00 AM
Good idea, nice angle, but I would have liked it better if it were all clearer.
05/20/2002 01:07:00 AM
Niiice.
05/20/2002 12:52:00 AM
How do you play that?
05/20/2002 12:34:00 AM
LOL! very creative, also nice use of b&w
