I'll post this here as a pre-voting comment: I am sure that there will be some that say this doesnt meet the challenge guidelines - so think about it this way: take the rule of 3rd grid and tilt it. Think outside the box for a change.

I do not find anything that let me say this composition is based on the rule of thirds. OK the queen is entirely in one third, but my eyes are forced to follow the card border down to the "Q" damaging the effect of the rule. I think the problem is mainly that the photo is too complex, filled with interesting elements and lines.
In a few words: there is too much.
