Defeat

For this week's Get pushed challenge Wendy @farmreporter asked me to set up a still life with at least five objects and photograph it with natural light. As you can see, the Men of Lewis defeated the Fancy Alliance. A victory for brute and bloody force. Let's hope there will be mercy for the survivors.
@farmreporter Thank you, Wendy, this was fun. The light was tricky, with stubborn reflections on most pieces, but endless possibilities for the set-up. I brought in a second set of chessmen, adding to the narrative in this open scene.

Andreas - while I love the challenge you gave me and I do have an idea on how to do it (I do plan on doing it when I get back home) but I am on the road and unable to do it with the logistics required.
Could you issue another challenge, please? I should be able to do almost anything you give ...

@farmreporter No problem, Wendy, let's save that for another time. Meanwhile how about something in the style of Bill Brandt?

Even though this is many objects, it works well because they all fit within one them. Nice image.
