AHA!! With a username like that, you must be a Monty Python fan. Congrats on a decent score for your second challenge. This is a very creative shot and I think you did an admirable job. It appears that you had illuminated the chessboard from the botton, hence the effect. This is a tough shot to get perfect focus unless you have a tripod and even then, you run the risk of camera shake by depressing the shutter with your finger. Had you set your camera on a tripod, or a flat stable surface, set the timer to activate the shutter, your focus would have been much better........oh well, live and learn. I see that you had the camera set at f8 as the shot may have been blown out otherwise. Good thinking. The composition is good but as you know, the shot is tilted slightly. Other than that, this is somehwat of an advanced technical effort and all in all, you executed it very well. It will be interesting to see how your work advances as you do more challenges and build up your portfolio. Well done!

| I like the lighting on the right hand side of the board and the solid black background. While I do get some sense of perspective, for me, it isn't as dramatic as other entries in this challenege. |

| Great title and I like t6he picture very very much. I keep wondering how one is going to retrieve the piece when it falls into the deep dark void. |

| Nice lighting. The white border is very distracting. Looks like you may have a hot pixel (2nd pawn on the left). I'm getting a little bored of photos with chess pieces, but this one is nice...just don't put white borders around dark pictures again. :-) |
