5 cheap die
felt marker and a drill press to make some indents
----------- post challenge remarks
4 reasons i left a shallow DOF
1) it helped the depth of the image
2) to open up - it would start to show the grain of the background
3) it showed more of the imperfections of my extra dots on the dice (drilled
dents & black marker) *most important reason
4) i thought it looked better ;)
though in retrospect / green felt would have done wonders

The totally black background does not seem natural. Green felt perhaps. I would have preferred more depth of field as the subject is the five die, not just the one in front. Nice find on the multifaced die. A 7.
greater dof would be more effective here, imho. the image also suffers a little, i feel, from the duotonal quality. a different color background might have perked this up more.
Would have been a winner if they were all in focus. Suggest you play with the f-stop settings and try and get some depth of field varation. See //www.dpchallenge.com/tutorial.php?TUTORIAL_ID=1
