Portrait & chess Black and white photography - monomad daily challenge

The first part is a portrait photography and the second part. It is related to chessgame.
This photography relies more on facial expression, and the lighting and facial expressions of the model are all we capture.
I asked him to sit with his back to the window so that we would have a good background light. We were far away from Fifteen and I opened the aperture of the camera to create a depth of field that would be quiet.

He wore a watch on his wrist, which made him look better with the gestures I gave him.
I try to move her hands closer to her face so that apart from the model being seen better, the accessory is also recorded in the photo and not just a simple portrait photo.
The lighting I did was dimensionless, because I wanted a one-handed image

In the second photo, changing the shape of the model's look changed the whole photo, and changing the position you see, a small change in the portrait photo can change the whole photo.
he had opened the collar of her dress and folded the hem of his shirt over his coat.

The second part of my photography is designed with a chess board, the model sits further away and looks at the game from a distance. I have played chess very professionally, when you are in the game, apart from the stress, you cannot look at the game very well and the movement of the pieces confuses you.
Therefore, from time to time we step away from the screen and look at it to better understand the flow of the game.
I always remember an interesting saying in chess that I think is the best chess saying that I can point to the best lesson in life, be silent and only speak when you want to say checkmate.

All these photos were taken in one location, I mean the first part and the second part. In the third photo, I also used cigarette smoke, which can create a special atmosphere in the photo. I have always tried to take pictures that tell a story.

I love photography and I will always love it, but sometimes I cheat on my love ( photograpy)
