The lighting is a little off, nice simplicity in the shot though and the focus/composition are fine.

Great set up. The lighting is a little bright on the pieces and corner, almost washing it out... BUT, being said, it also shows the detail in the board. So it's a 50/50 decision on whether I would tone down the lighting there, or keep it as is.
Love the concept here.

Getting everything "squared up" is not easy.

Well done on that.

You've met the challenge description perfectly.

Well done on that.

I'd love to see a bit more brightness or contrast here. Seems a bit... flat.

commenting only.
