Artist's Comments

I went today for a walk, and luckily, I had the chance to shoot some photos without feeling uncomfortable. I sat on a bench, and two men came and asked me

Can we play chess here?

And I was so happy that I didn't have to create awkward situations taking photos of them while they were playing, so I said

Sure, if I can take some photos.

And they gladly accepted.

Hope you'll like this one.

I love the shot. the one rook is completely surrounded by black pawns, but only after a good space around him, which makes him seem threatening as if even his teammates are frightened of him. Beyond that is the front line of white pieces, defiantly grouped to oppose the black. the composition draws your eyes immeditately to the rook (nice glint of reflection) then to the rest, and the shot of the old man (love the grain) brings it all back into perspective.

We do not receive a dream without the power of making it true. Still, we'll have to work on it, too! :)

I clicked on a link to your blog, saw this series of shots, and thought, wow, I wouldn't doubt that she took these, but they look very professional. The contrast, composition, tones -- everything in this shot, really -- are exceptional.
