Once again... true confessions of a photographer wanna be lol. I glued the dice to the background, played with the lighting for fun shadow effects. I did try rolling the dice and shooting but, could not come up with a single frame I was happy with :-) Mark J

Mark, I love the colors and the shadows. Nice work. I can just see you rolling these over and over and over.... to get this great shot! Roberta F.

Love this one too. The shadows - dice on edge. Great. I assume you used glue and that it's not some supernatural thing. ----arlene

Wow, how did you do this? Is this, as Willem asks, stationary, or did you just roll them and shoot on burst mode? --howcheng

Very clever done and beautifull image. I guess they are stationary ? using blue-tag or something similar ? Did you try panning the camera to add movement ? It is wonderfull as it is now anyway. Willem
