I like it. It looks like they are surveying the battle field or maybe they are in front of a firing squad...

Wow, great chess set, Napoleon and Josephine vs the English army.
Nice colorful composition.

Cheers

Even though it is a chess set and they are suppose to be setup that way, I 'm not sure if I would not have placed the queen and king a little closer as though they knew it was their last moments together...

The only thing that bugs me about the picture is that the field looks to be leaning slightly. Maybe pull back just a hair and then work on straightening the picture.

Great idea any it goes and good shot.
