I got this Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8 G lens after seeing some great shots from someone I follow on Flick. I actually think it's my favourite lens now - so sharp and macro shooting opens up a new world of creativity. It's hard though!

Thanks to @juliank and @photocontests for running this!
I like chess and the idea of shooting a possibly hand carved chess piece.
The light seems a bit orange and soft. I'd prefer more emphasis on brightness, black & white. Sudden sharp colors. Ideally this is converted to a black & white picture. More contrast. Finality. Just like the game itself. Black. White. Check. Check-mate.
I'll see if I can do what I describe with my phone camera next time I come across a nice chess set. Nice concept.
That's some excellent feedback - thank you so much! I really appreciate comments that aren't just - nice shot. I know I struggle sometimes to think of things to day and often worry whether feedback like yours would be welcome and whether I'm even qualified to give it, but I do like getting it myself. It helps me to improve!

Lovely shot, I like the subtle light.
Also, i like the "picking through" of the of the material on the Chess pieces.
Well Done!
