 Taken in macro mode with low light to try and avoid shadows. I even used the refridgerator light! I adjusted levels, Brightness/contrast, and saturation, I burned and dodges the dice a bit and blured the background. Cropped and saved for web! I wonder if anyone wiil get my tribute to Mexico with the colors for cinco de Mayo.

Cliched image will hurt you score. Next time show me something more original.

Was the noise intentional? I like the composition.

Good placement of the subject and good lighting! There's a little too much noise for my own tastes...makes it look just a touch grainy. I like the angle of the shot, you made a good choice. Great color choice for Cinqo de Mayo as well!

i like the colors here, and the use of the black background to offset and enhance the colors presented by the main subjects. the blue dots on the background are clear distractions, though, and the grain on the image just takes away punch from the overall composition.

Woah, there's another picture that's almost the same as yours (five dice in the same arrangement, but different colors) and I just got the two of them right in a row. Odd. There is quite a bit of noise here on the dice. Maybe it was dark and you lightened it? In any case, do you have NeatImage? There's a trial version available free on the web and it helps my pics a lot.

Well done - a bit noisy suggest using neat image or similar to clean it up.
