Day 336 || Chess Anyone

DailyShoot: Use strong converging lines in a photograph today. It's your choice whether or not to show the vanishing point.

 

I really thought about this challenge as I wanted to really challenge myself in produce an interesting photo. The I thought of my old Chess set that is made of marble; and how the grid makes for nice converging lines. Now to come up with what I thought would be a good angle to develope the converging lines on a shallow battlefield. I am really happy with the dark moody feel I produced on this image and I hope you are too.

 

Enjoy and remember to comment and critique.
