Sidewalk Chess
father and son in the little town of Ladysmith on Vancouver Island (visited on our recent sailing trip) .... a difficult to take picture - half the street was very dark, the other in bright noon sunlight ...

bright noon sunlight is SO tricky! but i guess one just can't expect the chess players to rise and be cerebrally fit at that magic golden hour just after sunrise… ; )) so noon it is! and you know what: you dealt with it so well! the powerful light/dark contrast suits the motif beautifully here, as it repeats that very dichotomy expressed in the battle of chess – white vs. black! greetings, sabine.YVES Lr 06/08/2014 10:31
Une photo qui présente des difficultés? Peut-être... mais elles ne t'ont pas mise échec et mat!Je suppose que tu ne pouvais pas prendre assez de recul pour avoir aussi les pieds de la table et laisser un tout petit peu plus d'espace au sommet du réverbère. Mais l'amitié qui se dégage entre père et fils sur cette image est belle à voir - même s'ils s'affrontent!
