Of all your submissions to Caedes.net, this is now my favorite. I like how the different pieces each show a different amount of light reflection and focus. Nice work!!

the perspective and the layout on this photo are what make it so pleasing... and you take a fairly simple and common subject and make it interesting. the one thing that i think takes away from it is the lighting, which is perhaps too drastic, and the background, which seems to have been ignored.

but the feeling of being on the board with the pieces, as if looking from the eyes of one of them, is awesome.

It's funny how the tables turn, turn, turn, turn.

I like the picture, but think that you could make it even better if you attempted more shots, varying the lighting and all.

I'm with reddawg. The photo is beautiful, but I think it would be better with dim fill lighting from above. The only problem is that I can't see any detail of the pieces.

I saw 'The King's Return 2' and I personally think this one looks good with the flashlight there. The shadows are great.

The mood this image sets...the calm, cool, collectedness that surrounds the board in a chess game. Brilliant work. 9/10
