Ummm, not as low key as I would like, but I did try to do a "black on black" thing.

If that one card I can't make out is a Q you got a great hand there. If you are playing poker I'm glad I'm not at the table =o) The dof used here works nicely, the focus is very good but what I don't like is there is just a little bit to much light for this challenge and not enough shadowing. Nice composition and yeah even with to much light it still is obvious it was done in low light so it does meet the challenge.

good depth of field, but i almost feel like the background cards are just cluttering this up. the black of the lettering on the card would probably look great when coupled with the complete black of the background, but you've thrown a lot of other whites and colors in there and it seems to just clutter it. 5.

Very cool. I like this a lot. I think the dented Ace gives the picture character. Possibly the back upper cards a bit too out of focus, but i like very much.

neat idea but it would be a great pic if the other cards were in a little better focus good luck in placing.

At first I didn't feel this met the challenge, but now, what the heck, it's dark, right? And I just love this shot: composition, focus especially. Nice work. 9

a clever interpretation of the challenge! Well and (so far) uniquely done!

Too bright overall for me to give it my best mark, I'm afraid.

Nice dof used, definately pulls the Ace out as your subject.
