The tank would have been SO much more effective and ironic on a regular Monopoly board. Still nice.

I had a very similar idea and i like the concept, except the composition does not work well for me and the reflection and shadows on the board are a bit distracting.

Its technically well done and has some message, credit for that.

Clever shot. I am a little distracted by that dark area in the top right corner of the image but otherwise everything looks technically good.

Nice execution, excellent twist on the oh-so-tiresome gamepiece motif. Doesn't hurt that the politics match mine, either. ;) About the only other thing you could have done would be to somehow convey "loaded" dice.

LOL would love to know where you got the board...

SOMEBODY went to a lot of effort for a non-profit challenge :)

But "out of place..." hmm. The only thing in this photo as presented that is "out of place" is the $20 when properties are selling for billions. I guess the tank playing piece is too big for the game as well.

Strange picture: terribly well executed, technically of course, and I like the detailing both of shot and of set-up, in that cards and stuff. Did you make that monopoly board? Or are they actually so utterly insensitive that it is produced commercially? I wouldn't put it past some people ... but I think it must be your own work - terribly convincing. Overall, however, the image is a touch disorganised, which dilutes its impact - and in fact, I think it's too dependent on text for it's real moments of fun.
