This image is a perfect example of utilizing a fast shutter speed. It is clear that there is a shallow depth of field, but why does this happen? When there is a faster shutter speed, the f-stop on your camera must decrease, or open up more because you need to let in enough light to expose the picture in a short amount of time. This limits the range of a photograph, however it makes for a very interesting shot!
To me, this image doesn't really give you the feeling of movement just because the fast shutter speed captures a moment in time and freezes the subject. While you may anticipate the dice continuing to roll, there is no evidence of this captured in the image. For a better feeling of movement, it is best to utilize a slower shutter speed.
One of the main problems the photographer may have encountered was timing. Who knows how many times he may have attempted to take this picture to get the final shot, but in the end it paid off. The only way to move past the timing problem is with trial and error, and lots of patients!
