Nice compo and very interesting photo, anca. Though you could have still enhanced the photo like more contrast or darkening to also give a nice focus on the chess board.

Misto surprins momentul.
Parca s-au suparat si se cara.

crop inseamna si incadrare pt unii :) desi mai corect e framing,
Si mie imi place f mult! bravo!

Buna Anca,
ai surprins foarte frumos o clipa din viata acestor oameni. Varianta B&W se potriveste perfect.

Numai bine,
Ioana

Well taken, good moment! What bother me a bit is the head in upper right corner; he looks too blurred; a bit of expresion on his face I think it was better.

Hi Anca,
I love this shot very much, the blur is just exellent, Bravo, strong composition.
Steph.

Hello Anca,
This is a very nice portrait. I like how they are moving away of the empty chess board after what was surely a very pleasant time they pass together.
Greetings.

This is a wonderful shot Anca!!!

The movement all around the table is captured perfectly. A great daily life scene full of stories. Very well done Anca!

Love and Peace Always,
Kevin

hi Anca, this is a classic! Love the b/w, the movement and the moment you captured.

"What reinforces the content of a photograph is the sense of rhythm – the relationship between shapes and values." You know who spoke these words, yes? He is your favorite. This is a fine decisive moment image with nice use of blur to show action - action that gives the image life. Nice rythm here!
Saludos
Kevin

I love this one Anca. I love the captured motion in B&W on the specific subject. It captures the mate very well.
