Prodigy

lovely tones- and yes its looks quite perplexing!

exceptional use of viewpoint! brilliant work!

Great composition and tones on this BW.

Excellent idea, very original and
interesting! cheers basia!

The emotion that your son conveys is so strong! I like that
by seeing just the top of your Dad’s head, I get a sense of standing
right over him and looking down at the board. I was playing chess just
earlier tonight. :) The subtle vignette (and slight hint of soft focus) works
well here too. It’s a great photo all around. Timeless..

Brilliant piece of work

amazing capture.. the experienced vs the eager beginner..

good one basia!

A nice moment.

You definitely captured all the intensity and concentration of a good game! Great portrait!

Bravo Basia you have captured the moment gorgeously!
and yes your son is discovering it’s not always as fun as it is at Hogwarts :o)
I hope your dad didn’t “let” him win :o)
Bravo :o)

What a brillant shot – great perspective-

Starting to “sress” abit i’d say!!!LOL..what a fantastic capture Basia!!! Exceptional!! *-)

Really beautiful capture!

Nice perspective and lighting!!!

It’s great to see that little mind chugging away. It’s even nicer to see this interaction between the generations. Good shot!

He’s looking a little stressed. Has to do with the fingers in the hair looking like they are ready to pull. Wonderful shot Basia!

Excellent B&W Basia, I love this.

LOL! Great catch…

excellent work

this is great, a lovely reminder of this moment in time

Great perspective! So nice to see generations learning from each other and spending time together!

I love the point of view here…the black and white adds to the tension and atmosphere! I LOVE IT!!!! :)

Cool shot Basia, The texture and the expression makes the contest look intense.

I have to laugh…I know exactly how the little guy feels.
A priceless moment Basia.

I think your perspective is just PERFECT..as if you are the spectator…amazing shot

Wonderful photo capturing a moment in time – the body language speaks 100 fold! I think he is just thinking very long and hard on his next move. Well done!

Wonderful shot and i love the angle and the B&W

Great angle and POV!

such concentration and focus! Great angle, great shot!

Excellent portrait Basia.

Excellent shot- Love your focus

Nice black and white shot of your son and FIL. I think your son is just thinking..as chess isn’t an easy game to play.

Just great! Amazing work ! kids just love the chess board

I love this perspective Basia and the emotion you’ve captured. It’s definitely taken from your sons point of view – I like how we can only see his side of the chess board!

fantastic perspective! a very unique image.

Great shot. Amazing composition.

Love chess, know the feeling!

really great pespective here Basia! Loved reading about their chess relationship too.

Fabulous angle and p.o.v.

great moment captured very nicely. I like this point of view which puts us in ! also like the contrast
I think he must really take this moment seriously (I mean, with all his aheart, sharing this precious moment of intimacy with his grandfather ^^ )

what a great shot – I love how engrossed he is.

Congrats on the homepagefeature

Great pov, congrats on homepage feature!

very cool. I like the thought behind this. congrats!

Such a cool picture! Congrats!

A flash from the PAST!!! My Father is also Polish and we too played chess as children with him. This picture remindes me of when I racked my own brain out how I could beat father, just once. Impossible!! My Dad would checkmate everyone in about three moves.
