Sorry, but the lack of focus is all wrong to me.

Too blur. Cant really see what the chess pieces even look like.

Comment by 16point2mm:
I think this shot could have significantly benefited from harsher lighting (as it is, I really can't see the difference between the colors of pieces) and from a tighter focus/shallower depth of field. The idea, however, and the concept of "challenge" inherant in the shot are worth pursuing.

Better focus would have improved this shot.

Comment by Neil:
I'm sure you've received a lot of comments that have told you this is out of focus (OOF). But I am guessing you knew that. So let's look at something else. It's hard, in this depiction, to tell that the chess players are different. The colors are the same in this very dark image. There is a good feeling of "opposition" though, from the angle you've chosen. But the tight crop here, combined with it being dark and OOF, doesn't have any dynamic, or "pop" as some people refer to it.
