I got lucky on the title here. I didn't start out to make this particular photo. I just started out doing some interesting depth-of-field shots of the dice. Then this came to me. Hope it works...I think it's interesting composition with the vertical lines and the mystery of not really knowing what they are. Then the title just hit me as I was walking to download the pics from the card.

An interesting take but I'm not fussy on the shot. It looks like a last minute entry just to enter the challenge. Altho I have never shot dice perhaps a marker to color in the black dots to eliminate the hotspots would have helped. Also a slightly not so wide shot would have a greater impact for this picture. I like the shallow DOF tho.
Cool title, Nice lighting for the shadow, but hte 4 and 5 seem a little shaded. Background works and is nicely blurred. Dice are a little beat up or this would be an 8. As is, 7. In short, clever and I like it.
