 I searched the whole city for Translucent Dice.

Found some!

I'm going to critique this one right now:

- Too soon after the Shallow DOF challenge. People are tired of Shallow DOF. WTH were you thinking?

- The 5s should have been 2s. I knew this, I even had it set up like that, but when I moved my set-up, I chose 5s for some odd, stupid, crazy freaking reason. ARGH!

- The top die isn't flat to the frame

- The background is too dark/flat/boring/ugly. I chose green for the complementary color effect. I probably shouldn't have.


Does that about cover it? I had this pegged as a low 6. *sigh*

I like the shallow DOF (if I am using that term correctly) and also the red dice. That color really just pops out of the picture.

This would have achieved the effect better if the other dice and the side of this one showed the number 2 instead of the number 5

I think it might have worked better showing the other side (the two) instead of the five. It would have made the 1 stand out more against the "couples". Nicely done though. Dice shots rock :)

I like the angle and clarity of #1 and the fade.

Good idea, I like the use of DOF to single out the number 1.
