Cool idea, but the photo is a bit dull. The subject matter is meaningful but not aesthetically pleasing.

good take on the challenge. good pic, not sure if I would change the focus to the dice in the front rather to the back or not. Just not a real interesting shot I guess.

Put it in your ONES......lol cute Idea...as for pic quality...focus could be reversed meaning of course...focus is toward the back of the photo...need more in the "front" of the pic

A little obscure, but clever

Interesting DOF, though the blur on the front die is a little distracting.

A real natural for Pi? Shows some good color, good lighting, focus is just fine too. A good idea for the Challenge.

I like how the dice here remind us that pi, as a number, has chance-like qualities. The composition of the dice I also like. It looks random, but I suspect you spent several minutes arranging them just so. The focus is on the last dice, when I think the image would be stronger with them all in focus. More "mysterious" lighting would also help transport the whole image into the realm of myth and fate and chance. Pi is usually associated with circles, so I find this image refreshing.

Creative! I good spin on the challenge. The focus seems a bit soft I would have liked a bit further DOF used so all the dice were sharp - but personal preference. =7

Wow, very nicely done. The creativity is a 10, the setup is a 10, but I can only give a 9 because I wish the whole shot was in focus -- you needed a greater DOF.

I love yahtzee so I like the idea behind it. I think if the camera was positioned a little more over the dice it would have been a little more clear.

Very creative entry. Wish you arranged the dice more logically (left to right instead of bottom to top)..
