someone to watch over me by northy

someone to watch over me

playing with shadows... actually, i was trying to figure out something clever to do with the opaque theme, but nothing was working... so i did this ;p

"opaque" because the chess pieces are opaque... as the light did not pass thru them, they cast a shadow on the paper that was between them and the camera lens...

Cool shot

@marinashemesh tx :) in the interest of full disclosure, i actually did comparatively little processing here (at least by my standards!)... cropped and straightened, tweaked contrast and converted to black and white...

Cool shot -- I like the play with the shadow and not being able to actually see the original figure casting the shadow.
