 The game of GO is about separation, and yet it is not about separation but co-operative separation. I try to capture this spirit in this picture.

No editing done on the picture, except for contrast adjustement

Looks like it might be quite a nice go set, though I can't see evidence of clam shell stripes on the white stones. Nice idea for a shot but I don't think I would have set up the board in such an implausable position. Also relies heavily on the viewer's understanding of the rules of go. I think your lighting might have made the white stones lighter to help the viewer distinguish the two colours more readily. I like the shallow depth of field and the B&W. 7

ok while I catch the separation it seems to fit isolation better to me. I beleive that I would be able to score this better if I had any clue at all what I was looking at. I am assuming this is some type of game simular to othello. so i'll have to base my score off of that asumption. Technicaly a decent phot but I don't feel thaat the shallow DOF worked well here.

Would have left this one in color...too hard to see in b&w..and the title is confusing.
