Really dig the contrast in this image. Definitely conveys the whole classic feel.

It's sexy, it's expressive, yet still maintains this traditional taste that smacks of class.

Most unfair, she'd win every game dressed like that :P Great shot, it's got 2 of my favorite things, chess and a gorgeous woman. Thanks for sharing :)

People will look at this and see a very beautiful, sensual woman playing chess.

I see a very well composed shot. The blacks, grays and white elements are visually well thought of, even her choice of clothes makes for a very good toned scheme for a black and white photo.

Know yourself. Know your enemy. Know when to attack.

Then I guess my work on the file paid off, those were all elements I considered and nurtured to make this image have the feel I wanted it to have. The dark tonalities were intended to bond the model, the chess board, and the viewer, leaving the rest of the world out. The viewer can feel like he/she is right there alone with Miss Fawn, wondering what moves she might be preparing to play. Her brilliant decision to reach for the opponent's pieces was the thing that really gave the shot it's playfully and alluring flavor.
