Smile Checkmate

I took this yesterday, as the start of my 365 effort. Still pretty much a newbie, but reasonably happy with how this came out.

Thought I'd share.

I did a quick search and didn't come up with anything, but is there a thread here in which everyone shares the links to their "Project 365" sites? I'd definitely be keen to check a few out.

Hi Daniel - a lot of thought went into setting up this photo .. I can tell and it's beautiful .. like the lighting and the angle a lot .. I think everyone with a project post all their images here

Nice shot, Daniel. Love the b/w treatment on the glass. Since you're a fellow chess fan, here's a "fallen queen" shot I did a while back and posted on DPS. I thought I'd share it with you! Nice work!! Keep it up, and welcome to DPS!!

Thanks Jim, for the feedback and the welcome. Very nice photo, the "haze" is a great effect.
