| Beautiful find. I love those old-fashioned graphics. It took me a moment to spot the connection between the auto accident and the space they had landed on (too many interesting things to look at, I guess). Good job, btw, on DOF, clarity, light, etc. |

*Critique Club*
Have to first say, it does bring back a memory or two!!
The lighting was very well done and the focus points are close to perfect (trying to bring the viewer into the scene).
The problem, for me lies in the amount of clutter and like colors that compete with the subject. Like the mountain (I had forgoten that they were snowcapped!!), green part of the board, green car, etc. then the spinner wheel kind of detracts from the subject.
The green car seems to blend into the board and the mountain making the image look really "full" and the white church combined with the insurance policy adds to the fullness.
Though I like the idea, it might have been a touch better trying it in portrait orientation and without the green car and the blue car crashed into the house (the rear of the car pointing to the place on the board and the peg people strewn about).
It is a very creative way to use a very recognized game in a great way (think how many chess boards there were in this challenge, its nice to see something different but recognizable).

Oh dear. I don't know if I want to hear the story behind that.
It'd work great in the next week's challenge too!
Nice work creating an atmosphere with your shot. |

| I like the idea and I like the lighting, but this is very hard to look at. Lots going on in a not so interesting way. :( (Hope they have insurance!) |

Nice use of colour. The focus also helps draw you to the cars.
Humourous too! Nice. |
