I don't think I could have set this picture up. I would have eaten all the M&M's. :) Lighting might be a little too much on the right side and not enough towards the back.

I like this image. The background is distracting though. I would have prefered a horizontally oriented picture with more board on the sides.

That's great. Field of dominos. All the different dots of colors within the field of white. You seem to have more focus towards the top of your frame at the dominos further away from the camera. I would have prefered more focus on the first few pieces and then slowly going out of focus to the back.

I like your idea for a game but I don't like your background. The glare on the wood from the lighting on the right is distracting. The straight down view to the playing area is just a little dull. I think a lower angle that that showed the hand placing in the match would have been great.

Nice shot. I love action photography.

Double Word Score

The repeating pattern in this is great. I would have prefered if you brought that point down till it was almost touching the bottom frame and then you made the "Triple Word Score" square in focus and then let the rest behind drown out.

I really like this picture, but I have some problems with it. The knight is a wonderful piece with some great detail. I would have loved if I could have seen its front, at the very least, turn it 45-90 degrees to the right so that its not backlit. The focus appears to be mainly on the fallen pieces. This is fine except that you have two pieces right in the middle obstructing the view. I think in this case focus should have been on those two pices. I like the way you used the piece all the way to the right to frame the photograph. I have no problem with it being out of focus. I also dislike your background it is too noisy and detracts from your subject.

Ack Red Wings fan. :) Don't worry I won't hold it against you. This is a really nice photo. I like the focus on the cards and blurred out in the background.

Dominoes

I'm gonn have to put this in my boring category. Yes its a game. Yes its dominos and its all in focus. But it ends right there. I'd say go for some more interesting angles, maybe get a little lower and closer on the dominos. Let some of the dominos fall out of the frame, by having them all within the frame you are telling me the entire story and not allowing me to use my imagination about where everything else is.

I like this one. Nice use of Sepia tone. I do not like the long shadows though.
