Great concept, but the composition is a bit lacking. There is so much negative space at the top of the photo, it is then visually disconcerting that the bottom of the card is cut off, with 2/3 of the face showing. The bottom face would have been better totally cropped to enhance the "lonely" feel of the facial expression, as would having all the other court cards in a gathering away from the jack, or a queen facing away from him, with another Jack facing her.
Technically, the focus is off on this photo, with both faces blurry, and only the center of card and the sash in the middle crisp and focused (auto focus?).
This is amazing as always author. I love the way your images tell stories.
Your work with the light is fantastic ... I begin to suspect that is your photo, before give the note ... Congrats ...
Howdie stranger!
