A good crisp shot with bright eye catching colors. A hair more elbow room around the board would be a bonus. Fits the challenge well. I would also like to see a blurry ghost hand move a marker to break up the static quality of the image ( just a personal whim ). A good straight forward shot.

Nice bright colours and concept. you will want to try to make the horizontal lines parallel to the horizon in the future. Good luck.

I'll take the $25 chips! Neat idea, the board is leaning a bit to the right which is a distraction.

Composition: Good, but needs rotating slightly ccw? Would have looked better symmetric I think.
Technical: A little more lighting at the top/back of the photo may have made a stronger impact.
Meets challenge: Yes
Overall impression: Could have been excellent, but lacked sheen. 6

One of the best photographic rules I've learned is that, every time you're tempted to use the camera's built-in flash, you have to pinch youself somewhere painful as hard as you can for as long as you can stand it. Pretty soon, you stop being tempted. Nothing screams 'snapshot' so shrilly as the combination of overexposed highlights and background falloff produced by these (damned) things. They're okay for taking a picture of the product of a fender-bender, but if you want to make a pleasing image you're much better off using a tripod (or even just bracing against something and taking a deep breath, releasing the shutter while exhaling) and natural light.
