Comment by glad2badad:
:-) Yes. Well, mostly. It is a bit noisy / grainy. But I like the concept / story better than your entry.

Comment by glad2badad:
I'm a bit of a nit-picker and thought that 1) the board & pieces could have been cleaned prior to taking the photo, and 2) turn the pawns so the seam of the plastic pieces don't show.

For the allegory to work perhaps a white king and black pawns would have sold the concept better, unless I'm out in left field and missing the point.

Comment by posthumous:
I was going to say this is an impossible position, but it's not. black could have had a piece on c8, which was captured by the pawn on d7. If the pawn promotes to Queen or Rook, it's checkmate. If black has no other piece, and the pawn promotes to Bishop or Knight, the king can't move, and it's a Stalemate, a draw.

Comment by Donald:
Would have liked a ladybug added for color and interest that seemed missing to me. Best part of photo was the lines not placed directly into the corners of the frame.

Comment by Pangurban:
Love the composition and colours (and music reference ). My one little observation is that I̢۪d have preferred the door to have been more in line with left hand side.

Comment by willem:
Was this the best standpoint and the best composition that could be achieved given the situation? I don̢۪t like it. Sorry.

Bigger Inside Than Outside?

i looked forever to find a good camera bag that wasnt too heavy and was relatively small ..
but when i came on the high sierra backpack i found it the best one out of many i'd tried .. i have been using one now as a handbag for several years .. it fits my canon 5D series in it with batteries etc .. and a small lens ..
but putting the external flash in too was a bit to much .

when i got into the olympus mirrorless .. the size of that camera was a godsend .. i could fit the camera, and an extra lens or even two .. depending on the size ... and the external flash .. all in my 'handbag' ..

if i was doing a paid gig i'd use other camera bags .. but day to day .. i like to travel as light as possible ... so the olympus was wonderful .. might sacrifice a bit of quality from the full frame ...

i just went to see if the one i use is still available .. and like i said .. i've been using one for several years .. at least 10 or 12 or even more .. and they are still available .. was such a good design i'm not surprised ..
check it out ..
