Chess pieces at golden hour

"If you fall behind, run faster. Never give up, never surrender, and rise up against the odds." Jesse Jackson

 

Uncovered ancient chess pieces currently on display at the National Museum in Manila, Philippines.

i thought about the whole set, with a white side paper for the white king.

the i realised it cant be done, so i went for the black set only. then i realised i will never have a bog enough paper. and no way to do the Rook..

 

tha paper is not dividied to equel squares. the kings one is double the pawn. i had to calculate the right position off all players to keep the paper as small as possible, and still an 79X79 cm Tant Paper was not enough for details i wanted with the king

This shot was lit only by a tea light. With the camera on a tripod and the shutter set to a full 8 seconds, the shot captures the soft glow of the candle.

 

This is my second attempt at creating a dramatic photo using chess pieces. The first shot was decent from a technical standpoint but it lacked tension and foreshadowing. This photo illustrates those concepts much more effectively.

It's your move. The guy to the left won the game. I first noticed the chess board here three weeks ago.
