A beautiful photo of both of them.
The priceless quality of experience and the intelligent spirit and willingness to learn of youth....Priceless!
I think it's an even nicer photo when you consider that the younger man has won. Kudos to Lapshun for going over it.

These men have CLASS!
The essence or chess in a photo. Great stuff!

thanks, I'm sad I did not adjust the white meter and the second photo is all yellow
That's a very impressive game from someone so young, especially since this is the type of position in which young players often self-destruct. Not much in the way of surface tactics: just a smooth (yet nonroutine) positional crush!
Nice blog, keep up the good work.
