Cool idea, but i am not sure the focus is where it should be. Maybe a different angle would have been better.

This was a good board game choice, and the low angle and the colors are strking. I like the shallow DOF, but it's perhaps a bit too shallow IMHO

Good depth of field and color. It would have helped to see any opposing force (you can't have a struggle without resistance).

not enough dof for me...... for this type of shot, id much rather have just one focus point like the cannon, or have most the soldiers in front have focus. but thats just me, other than that, nice use of colours.

i like the shallow depth of field: there is enough of it in focus for me to see what the things are withut boring me with seeing to many. the use of the vibrant primary colors is also a plus. the content is not the most interesting

I don't see the advantage of going with this shallow DOF. Especially not using this angle for the photo. I think it would be more successful in a portrait format with the cannon pointng up. Also with a little more room in front of the cannon. Then, put the focus on the cannon thus deemphasizing the focus on the troops.

I'm not too familiar with this game.

like the idea, would have liked to see a little greater depth of field

I like this shot though I think the die in the background are a little distracting.

after i shot my pic i thought of this, the same night even. What would make it better: focus: it needs to ALL be in focus. if the middle east was perhaps the setting - with two opposing armies or similar, and give 'em flags for the US, iraq, etc. Great idea, poor pic and fair implementation.

Challenge is well met. I think the DOF is too shallow.
