I suppose someone has pointed this out, but you couldn't put two men into checking position (bishop and rook) in this formation because the king would have already been in check the previous turn. I, of course, have too much time on my hands to be noticing such things. The photo? Oh that's nicely done, especially in basic.
Composition is EXCELLENT, great concept & very well executed. With that said however, I find the shadow @ the bottom of the frame to be very distracting... was that from your lens hood?
Can't get into chess set images. I enjoy a good game of chess, but as subject matter for photographs it's just a non-starter. Not voting, just commenting. Good luck.
