Still Life: Conceptual work with two Etruscan Chess Pieces: "Marital Games."
I'm a bit hesitant to post and not quite sure where this might belong, if at all. I am torn between Entry Digital and Risk It. Wherever this ends up (possibly on the cutting floor!), this is an idea i've been fiddling with for over a year now.
The main point is that people play games in relationships and the results are often disaster. Using pieces from a chess set (Eutruscan design, I *think*) I bought on Santorini, I'm trying to make a symbolic statement about game playing in marriage. This is my latest version and is closest to what I'm trying to get.
The final result will be called "Marital Games." It was shot ISO 400, f/5.7, 1/25s, 105mm (Rebel Xti, 24-105, tripod and remote shutter release).
My question: What are the obvious flaws? What works and what doesn't?
