 Last minute idea. It didn't turn out the way I had intended. The idea was to show the lonely pawn out in front having to face the black brigade. This is not portrayed in the photo. Considering it was shot with 25 minutes left in the challenge, I can't really complain.

Good shot, very nearly great for me... tilted a little (maybe it;s the piece itself), and the white balance seems off. A little underexposed?

Cute idea, nice photograph, I like composition and DOF. Only comment is that the pawn looks like it is a brush holder of some sort and I was quite confused initially as to what this actually is. I can see now on the top is the reflection of the other pieces, still don't know what the "neck" part is ... Makes an otherwise really good picture confusing (at least for me :-))

Solid opening. I always use it as white.

Nice idea. I can see the link of loneliness. The main thing that bothers me in this photo is the dust on the board. Perhaps if it was cloned out, it wouldn't be so distracting. Good shot, however.
