This game drives me crazy. But, you have taken a very nice picture of it.

Eh. I can't really relate. I get the title, but as for the image and the little ball things on the felt, I don't see how it's a game.

Great depth of field.
05/25/2002 08:23:00 PM
Go get 'em...

good DOF.

Excellent contrast bwt the smooth stones and rough cloth. Great clarity in the fg and selective focus. Looks like the camera wasn't quite level, but that could be fixed (and the unnecessary bit of bg removed) if you cropped to 640X427. One of my favorites.

nice use of depth of field ...
05/24/2002 12:22:00 PM
Great idea! I really like the angle and DOF of this picture. The only thing I might have done differently is find a more solid, less textured
surface to put the stones (?) on--like maybe a solid, non-reflecting black background. This is, of course, just my opinion!

Nice shot but not sure how close it is to the challenge. I have to give more points to the technique than the game concept.

looks like a form of othello, nice tonal range on the B+W, can't decide whether I like how fast the focus falls off or not, the subject matter leaves me a litte flat dosen't really envoke a felling.

I like the lighting and shadows in this photo but I have no clue what this game is...
05/21/2002 04:04:00 PM
Sorry I just dont get it........Its a well focused shot, interesting use of black and white though...so I gave you a 5.

You could maybe get a better angle, nice reflections on the pebbles.
05/20/2002 05:31:00 PM
Like the contrast, and light in this one.
05/20/2002 04:54:00 PM
you need better lighting But its good
05/20/2002 01:15:00 PM
Fun shot, love the b&w, good composition, DOF, well done.
05/20/2002 09:27:00 AM
Beauty! I love the reflections you caught.
05/20/2002 05:34:00 AM
a little more contrast
