Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the term snake eyes mean both die show the number 1? It's rather difficult to tell here which number I'm supposed to look at but I see the number 5 on both first then the others. Lighting is also quite harsh and bright. I like the use of DOF to concentrate focus on the foreground die "ball" and it looks good.

I like the subtle diagonal composition - the shadow in the background and the shaddoews of the dice - escecially in a subject without any straight lines! I would prefer a plainer background - the woodgrain is a bit distracting.

I have never seen round dice before. I'd hate to play yahtzee with them. Cool picture.

Interesting subject, well captured. I like the way the landscape tilts. Shadows are good and DOF works. Good job.

Those are different! There seems to be a yellow cast to the picture which, imo, should be at least partially corrected.
