Let 'em Roll!


A few of my family members like to get together to play a game we call 750 or dice, (not real sure what the real name of the game is??) Wasn't to sure how candid the dice would be, but they sat real still for me as I grabbed the camera and took a few shots. lol : ) Posted by Picasa

Very clever! Funny how things I wouldn't really normally look twice at, suddenly appear so appealing.

I like the composition, it is perfect. I love the way the dice trail away from the camera.

Now, this is a suggestion because I happen to like this look but it's up to you, but I feel it would be interesting to

one: focussing on those dice to the foreground, say the right and left two I would then try to reduce your depth of field as much as much as possible, see what that looks like. Would be cool because they would have more focus and lend a slight, well, drama isn't the word but you know, interest to the image.

two: These bold contrasting tones. Well, gotta be black & white. I think that would be really dramatic and maybe fun for you. Plus you don't have to take another picture! I like this shot though.

Have a look at this link for what I'm thinking, not perfect but it gives you an idea:

The "s" is somewhat more blurred.

Personal taste though and this image is lovely.

~k~, did you go check that site out shown above? There is a picture on that site, of a bold looking rooster. It's lovely ... but the entire background is green, thus making the bird really stand out. How would I change the entire background color of a picture so that my main focus it what jumps at you?

ps... I couldn't find a way to ask "Tobias" this question, so I thought you may know the answer.

Thanks everyone!!
Tobias thank for all your suggestions, I think I'm going to work on this photo a bit more to see what I can do with it.

I haven't tried it in B&W as of yet Leesa, but am going to, and will post that version also.

Oh and Wendy, I take photos of everything! Sometimes it works & well sometimes it don't then I say to myself...what the heck was I thinking of when I took that shot! lol :)
