Shame you could not have captured this image a lot earlier or later in the day to obtain a softer light, harsh light is difficult when there is so many white buildings, gives the impression of the image being 'washed out'

Comment by Bran-O-Rama:
Whites are a little overexposed. Is this a residential area? I would've focused less on the houses and more on the ocean/landscape.

Comment by Daraton:
The table and out of focus background is a bit distracting. It's too obvious that it's a book behind the car. I think for this to work better, the mechanics shouldn't be revealed.

What happened to the VW emblem? Why is the left brake light red?

Comment by MrAkamai:
Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the term snake eyes mean both die show the number 1? It's rather difficult to tell here which number I'm supposed to look at but I see the number 5 on both first then the others. Lighting is also quite harsh and bright. I like the use of DOF to concentrate focus on the foreground die "ball" and it looks good.

I like the subtle diagonal composition - the shadow in the background and the shaddoews of the dice - escecially in a subject without any straight lines! I would prefer a plainer background - the woodgrain is a bit distracting.
