Not enough depth of field to really make this shot effective. Nice attempt, though. Would have been much better had the cards in your hand been closer to the lens.

really wish there was a smaller DOF in this shot. It would be stronger if that Ace of Spades was out of focus

interesting take on the challenge - it works for me!

I would have liked it if the cards in hand were the main subject of the shot - this could have been emphasized more by better focus on those cards, better lighting on that section of the image. instead, it seems that the focus is squarely on the chips in the lower portion of the shot

Narrow DOF kind of works against you on this one. Am I missing something, the point of view hand loses to a full house, right? The title seems to imply otherwise. Anyway cool photo.

Well done, this is a beautiful image and should have scored higher(IMO).

good choice of "background." i almost missed "the ghost." if it weren't for the feet, I would have just thought you found an old house to shoot in.

It is hard to see the (ghost) in the picture at first. The background is very appropiate, therefor it is almost paraormal in two different ways. The columns and the banister really lead the eye into the photgraph.

I love the abstractness. Very intriguing.
