nice dof and good use of b/w.. not sure if I like the angle/composition.. the objects look squeezed in together.. In any case a good shot..

Everything is a blur - I get the concept, but there's no focus - DOF too narrow? Gonna skip voting, hope this comment posts to you

I think in this challenge you need to hit people with some sort of emotional impact. It's a good pic of a chess set and I get the concept but it just falls short in having that aforementioned impact.

Great idea but so blurred and then out of focus.

i like the selective focus, if i could have my way id add a little more contrast and maybe move a little bit closer to the king and queem, really just squeeze them in there.

Dof is a bit low for this image (to me) and the lighting seems flat, not dynamic. Overall a good image that has a tough translation to the challenge.

DOF is too shallow for my taste, lacks a bit of fore-/background contrast

I like this photo a lot, but the depth of field seems a little too narrow. If you could have managed to move the focus forward about 3/4" it probably would have worked out better. (There's some of the front board that's in focus, but the back of the king/queen are OOF.)
