How about a nice game of chess?

I made this as a couple of weeks ago as a test of the EOS5D and some other gear I have laying around. It's based on a real chess game that happened a few hundred years ago.

Nice! Btw curious how did you make those last few seconds "blur" for most parts of the board (2:30-2:42)

Thanks for watching and commenting. The final two shots were done with a Lensbaby and the Glidetrack.

Philidor Defense?

Up to move two, yes. But then black makes the mistake of trying to fianchetto his bishop. Pretty soon after that his greed gets the better of him.

Beautiful work. Now you've gotten me interested in a Glidetrack.

thanks for watching and commenting

the glidetrack works better with a bit of WD40
