Placed a heavy striped and laminated base beneath and then a Photogenic light stand on either side. Have saved that striped laminated base even moving from Alaska.

 

Just playing on a rainy day. About as shot; one of many RAW experiments with increasing depth of field. Thanks for looking.

 

No algorithm on the horizon ;-) It is safe to comment.

The chess flower - meanwhile a rare springtime flower that got its name from the delicate patterns of its petals.

The Chess flower - one of my springtime favourites. Meanwhile rare in the nature we could find her close to ponds on meadows. This beauty I photographed at an old Arboretum.

Four pieces of chess, taking advantage of the white color of these pieces, I put a black background, behind, to stand out even more and the only lighting, there was at the scene, it was the afternoon light, which came in through the window.

  

Cuatro piezas de ajedrez, aprovechando el color blanco de estas piezas, puse un fondo negro, detrás, para que destacaran más aún y la única iluminación, que había en la escena, era la luz de la tarde, que entraba por la ventana.

With this chess game I have leant to play chess.

Мини-скульптура проекта «Шукай» посвящена киевским шахматистам и установлена в парке Шевченко в месте, где киевляне проводят время за этой игрой уже более 50 лет. Скульптор – Ольга Колесник.

Проєкт «Шукай» — це історія Києва у бронзових мініскульптурках.

 

«In the 60-s of the previous century, when the interest in playing chess became massive, you could see a lot of followers of the game in the small public gardens, in the courtyards of high-rise buildings and even on the beaches of many Ukrainian cities during summer. At that time the street chess club was spontaneously formed in Kyiv. For that you only needed one chess-board, two chess players and… weather without precipitation. In case the activity attracted leisurely passers-by – tourists, chess players and other activists, they immediately turned into friendly advisers, rigorous judges, eminent grand masters and dedicated supporters.» Y. Bevzenko

I have taken up playing chess lately ,and I thought I would try something different so I will be posting a few of chess pieces

The first image that I upload this year 2025, is of a game of chess, a game as old as known, which has its origins in India, although modern chess, as we know it today, has more than five hundred years, the first game of modern chess, was played in Spain in the year 1475, besides being an ancient game and good for exercising our brain, is played by many people from different countries of the world. The black and white pieces face each other in another game, who do you think will win the game?

 

La primera imagen que subo este año 2025, es de una partida de ajedrez, un juego tan antiguo como conocido, que tiene sus orígenes en la India, aunque el ajedrez moderno, tal y como lo conocemos hoy en día, tiene más de quinientos años, la primera partida de ajedrez moderno, se jugó en España en el año 1475, además de ser un juego antiguo y bueno para ejercitar nuestro cerebro, es jugado por muchas personas de diferentes países del mundo. Las piezas blancas y negras se enfrentan en otra partida, ¿Quién crees que ganará la partida?

A major youth chess tournament was taking place in Iasi on the day I visited it with more than 2000 participants. The event took place in front of the Palace of Culture.

Chess pieces from a magnetic travel set. The tallest piece the King is 20mm.

With a typical lashup of 3 GP40's, a Chessie System rolls west past the tower at Nova on the former B&O. One of my favorite haunts in the late 80's was to chase back and forth on the B&O between Lodi and Willard on one of the first warmer days in the springtime. The Indian's spring training games would be on the radio and there would be solid sets of Chessie geeps. The Indians weren't yet any good and hadn't been for a long time but in the spring there's always hope and every new kid is going to be a star.
