New Chess Photography Project - NOVEMBER

I've been feeling pretty inspired these days thanks to an increase in my chess studies and a visible improvement in my game so I've decided to start a monthly chess photography project.

My goal is to merge the topic of chess with the month in which the photograph is taken to create a picture that encompasses both the eloquence of chess and the essence of the month.

Here is my first one beginning in November:

Let me know what you guys think, any and all criticisms are welcome : )

You set up the board the wrong way

How do you figure?  Black square in the bottom left hand corner seems right to me...

I guess the white pawn on b1 complicates matters then?

that's a knight!

Nice photo. Thanks for sharing!

Nice!

What camera do you use?

This was taken with my Nikon D300s and 24-70 f/2.8 lens.  Post-processing w/ PS CS3

oooh... fancy.
