Do you really play chess? I play quite often
at the Chessbase play server, with the Hiarcs 10
chess program. My Blitz rating is around 1500

Well you messed up your streak of brown ribbons...you had something going there. I actually see a real honesty to this photo.

I prefer real self portraits - not the fake and contrived ones most often seen here.

The surrounding elements are too distracting for me. the two-liter bottles, the books, the vacuum cleaner, the bottle of honey, the cigarettes, these are all distracting from the main image of the player.

This might be better if the background wasn't so busy.

I'm not sure if I'm missing something, but this just seems like a snapshot.

This needs a lot of work both on it's setup, colorization, as well as the total image size.

Cropping out or blurring of the background would have helped to focus this image.

interesting slice of life image. I even think the yellow cast works here to add to the mood.

maybe if the backround was black, it was a different perspective, and the lighting was different it might have done better.
Also, why are there like 10 coke bottles on the floor??
