Description I was bored today and decided to try out an idea that I had: I wanted to see how many stories I could tell using chess pieces. Now, I have one chess set where the pieces are shaped like people, a woman for the Queen, a man riding a horse for the knight, and so on. I had planed to use those, but they didn't show up well on camera so I ended up using my glass set, it showed up better and I was happy with the outcome.

There isn't really a story for this picture, I was just trying to show the easy divisions that can be found on a chess board, if only life was really that simple. Enjoy!

I love the reflections on the board and the lighting, it really adds to the depth of the picture.

Thank you; you have no clue how long it took me to fix the lights so everything had that depth.
