May have been better with less light and without the board being illuminated...Just a thought. Nice effect though.

This is an exceptionally high quality photograph with superb tones and full range of tonality to sold black.

The only technical flaw is that the lighting is unbalanced on the board. You should have another similar light on the right side. If this was done intentionally then you may have considered putting the light at a steeper angle to magnify the effect and produce some shadows. That would add interest and make the effect more obvious to the casual viewer.

Fantastic lighting, I love how the glass is glowing. Great image.

Sharp and well lit.

Beautiful. Very good use of light and "Darkness." I gave a 7, even though I dont play chess! Good luck.

you need the rest of the pieces? nice shot!
06/19/2005 06:26:49 PM
Gorgeous shot! I love the contrast of light and dark. Very upscale.
06/19/2005 05:26:58 PM
Great capture! Fantastic lighting, too!

The title is stretching it a bit. Lovely photo however.

Lovely lighting, nice and sharp.
06/16/2005 07:57:26 PM
Well composed & nice lighting. Cool board!
06/16/2005 05:13:10 PM
wow, amazing. this has gotta be in the top 5 at least
06/16/2005 11:00:21 AM
Very pretty lighting on this - I like it.
06/16/2005 09:05:21 AM
creative approach....I like the glass and the use of lighting...
06/15/2005 10:53:56 PM
Saj?
06/15/2005 01:30:48 PM
Good shot but personally think it would look better with less light on the one side
06/15/2005 12:49:25 PM
Very good shot! Does it meet the challenge?...I don't see it, but it is a great shot anyway
06/15/2005 12:41:37 PM
Sharp.
06/15/2005 10:56:22 AM
Nice clean photograph! I love the light to dark gradient.
06/15/2005 04:57:41 AM
Very nice use of light and darkness. Good luck.

I would have given a 10, if it werent for the fact, that the perspective is a little crooked. If you had taken the shot a LITTLE more to the right, it would have been perfect.
Otherwise an awesome photograph.
06/15/2005 04:39:10 AM
Love it
06/15/2005 03:52:53 AM
the cropping isnt so fantastic. too much on the right, which needs a little bit more cropped off. overall nice pic, but to imrpove, try aligning all the chess pieces in a straightline, maybe? an 8 for this shot.
06/15/2005 01:24:12 AM
Great detail - crisp as can be. Nice lighting!
06/15/2005 12:26:47 AM
IMHO this image -- although very nice -- did not meet the challenge
