Soft focus from depth of field on the front pieces doesn't add much to me... I like the "hand out of the darkness"... The knight is being moved, it only has one square it can go to (kb3), so I'm not sure I see the "indecision" here...But that's just me, and what do I know? :)
Good idea, but I think it would help to have some reference to the time spent deciding- a calendar, dust on the pieces, etc. Otherwise, you could just as easily be depicting an immediate decision (there's only one move that knight can make, after all).
Love the deep colors, dof, hand out of black, a technically wonderful shot. However no indecision. I'm not trying to be a stickler, but there is not even a choice. The only place to move that Knight is to f3. So the title is appropriate.
Great image...
Sorry to be a nit-picker, but if that Knight is being moved from it's starting square, there isn't any indecion about where it can go... but who cares? I like the idea - I wonder if showing more of the board or having it a little tilted would add a little drama - to make the viewer feel some of the worry of the indecision of the potential move.
I think I would understand this more if the hand was hovering over the knight and not holding it. As it is, I can't tell what the options are. Still, the clarity and the lighting are excellent and I like the way the hand just appears. 7
