Guess I don't play poker enough. Maybe I'd understand if I put down the camera and picked up the cards. Not enough picture for me. Good combination of B & W and color though. Do like that but that only gets a 5

best of the card shots... it's the least contrived looking... I think a different angle on lighting might make it better.. but what do I know.. just a rookie at this

I like your lighting. Composition is missing something. I feel led away from the cards, especially the Aces which is the focal point of the shot. Good job though. DPz

I like the lighting on the poker chips. Good detail in the texture on the cards.

Very original
