| Thanks for the comments! Sorry it took so long to get back here. Traveling, computer crashes - too many distractions! I hope to have more time to spend here from now on. |

Good solid black background and intersting brown tones on the board and pieces. DOF is OK.
It is doubtful voters will see a strong connection with the challenge topic.
On the technical sie the pieces are not horizontal and that is a major distraction. It makes image lopsided. The white king is slightly overexposed on the right side and it would be nice if it were just a touch darker there. Though generally good the focus is a little soft for an image with a simple presentation like this one. It would be better if the pieces were in razor sharper focus. |

| Nice and crisp, but the line of the board at the back is slightly distracting - it doesn't look quite horizontal. The jaunty angle of the rook only serves to heighten this effect. 7 |

| Maybe pushing it a bit... maybe if the winning side were to use black pieces (rather than a brownish finish) it might do better? I don't think the very centered composition is strong in showing the "darkness" of the loss. |

| i love everything about this shot. I can feel the anxiety of the king at the hopelessness of his fate. Darkness prevails. Beautiful chess set! great attention to detail. nice perspective. |
