I *really* like this shot, but if I were to have seen it without knowing what the challenge was - I would have guessed 'gambling', 'games', or 'black and white', not science.
I really like this shot.....for a gambling, luck, or yahtzee theme. As it is the only thing that really communicates science is the title. Cool shot though.
Hehee, good idea, original idea. Bravo. I see a lot of noise/grain. This is not a bad thing, but I believe here the dice needed to be crisp. Beyond that, this is not an unlikeable shot at all.
I like the way this shot was set up, how you can just barely tell the last die is about to land as a 6. It looks a little rigged to me, maybe have the first blurry die propped up a bit so it looks like it's just about to stop moving. Great picture though!
I love the aniticipation you achieved - will the last one be a six? But is it science? We'll give it the benefit of the doubt for such a compelling photo.
I don't know that I would call this "science" (odds are more mathematical than scientific, yes?) but I like the shot a lot anyway. I love that the 5th die hasn't fallen yet leaving the question open-ended. The lighting, cropping, the black&white and DOF are all great.
I like the artistic qualities this photo has. The shallow depth of field works very well and the composition is lovely, as is the border. Not terribly "scientific", but not a big deal to me. Well done
