Between a rook and a hard place

So there's this giant chess board in Swanston street in the city. I watched one guy lose to another. Loser wanders off. Kid wanders in. Kid challenges winner. Winner asks kid's mother "Is he any good?" Mother says "You tell me!" They play. Winning guy spends the next 20 mins with the most panicked looks on his face. That kid was fast! Was he actually going to get beaten by a kid? A small crowd gathers to find out. Winning guy still looks scared. Sadly, I had to scout some locations for my planned shoot for the day and too wandered off, but I wish I'd stayed to see who won...that kid was REALLY good!

Nice capture! I like the feet moving through the back of the pic too. Sounds like the kid had a good chance of winning, especially with that cool hat! :)
