Lacks critical focus on any subject. Also, did you mean to enter this into odd? 5 chips, 1 on each die...

from the title I'm thinking the dice should have been in focus

could be sharper and lower dice would look better if it wasnt cut off

With the title Snake Eyes perhaps the focus should be on the dice and not the chips.

This image is too blury.

The tokens seem to be a little over-saturated to me. And, a little larger aperture for more depth of field might look nicer. Along with slightly more even lighting. 5

I think, maybe, it'd be nice if the dice were in focus, rather than the chips.

I do think this would have been better if something had been in focus.

Blurry foregrounds hurt the eyes. The composition is a nice idea, but doesn't really come through very effectively.

The focus is a bit off. I do like the concept though.

Bad focus kills this.

seems out of focus...that is if you were focusing on the chips not the dice!

cool but a bit oversharpened?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

As it's the dice that are even in your shot, I think you should have got them in focus.

Why is the only thing in focus the very back of the table?? Focus the subject please!
11/23/2005 10:48:32 AM
Nice idea, needs sharper focus on the dice. Also (just a knit-pick), I would have used an even number of chips as well.

I think the dice should be more in focus.

I am not sure what you are trying to focus on. Not sharp enough for me.
11/23/2005 09:10:47 AM
The dice look out of focus.
11/23/2005 08:31:15 AM
There were 5 spirit-level tools (one was mine :)
Did you count playing stones?

Nice composition and the chips add nice color, but needs better focus and depth of field.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I like the idea. Since the dice are your main subject as indicated by your title, I think they should have been the items in focus. Also there feels like lots of wasted space on the right.

There is nothing artistic about this shot. It doesn't seem esthetically thought out. It has a blurred snapshot sense to it. Send some time. Place the objects strategically and make sure your focus is tack sharp. I'd like a scene similar to this in black and white with lots of negative space. Hope this helps.

The dice are even.
I get that.
I would have liked this picture with some people included in it.
Looks of happiness/horror etc...
Maybe some atmosphere as well, with full ashtrays and glasses of drinks, etc...
Also, I don't know if it's a visual illusion or not, but there appears to be a kink in the green carpet.

Way to blurry for my taste and this greatly detracts from the photo.
