There are tons of images of chess players over Internet. But sometimes it is hard to find a good one. I propose to open "Good Photo Series" in Chess Players forum category. Let's start with Alexei Shirov. 

 

Player: Alexei Shirov

Try to play as GM Shirov! 

 

 

Black's move 47 is the move that is placed number one in Jonathan Emms' book Most Amazing Chess Moves of All Time.

hello, Poitr! Congratulation for the  "Good Photo Series" of chess players

I support 100% your idea of publishing what you called "good photo series". And I will certainlly track this special forum.

If possible I'd like very much to know something about your first choice, Alexei Shirov. Is he your favourite chess player? What is so special about this particular player? etc.

Dear Poitr! I suggest you provide a short introduction for each selected player of your choice as some members may have no idea about her or him beforehand.

 Okey, congratulation again & hope very much you will have so much fun.
