Tv Remote (How i Took It?!)


Hi Everyone!
This photo was taken when i was just playing around my Canon 60D and Canon 580 Speedlight. The photo was taken with a Canon EFS 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 Lens. All further Details are below. the speedlight was fired from below the remote and from the same height as remote.
Camera = Canon 60D
Lens = Canon EFS 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6
Focal Length = 135mm
Apeture = f/5.6
ISO = 100
Tripod = Yes
White Balance = Auto
Speedlight = ETTL


All suggestion are welcome, as i am still learning and will appreciate some honest advice!! please leave a comment if you think it can be improved and how?!

Thanks
Kind Regards
Jassie

with your EXIF, it is a neat shot, if I going to recompose this remote control, i lay it flat and give an angle to show its dimension and not to place in deadly center, and maybe I try to incorporate other elements or try a contrasting background, just keep on experimenting.

instead of firing the flash from below I would have used a 3/4 angle to highlight at least 2 edges and define the shape...To me it's almost entirely backlit buttons. It is well exposed though.
I think more DOF would be better, unless there's something about the "play button" which is significant in the idea...(it's the focal point)

Thanks for your view's guys!! i like the idea of having a flash at 3/4 angle and not having the remote in the middle of the pic. i will probably do the same experiment again. And the play,stop and rec button does kinda tell a story.
thanks again and i will do some more experiments with the remote and see how much better we can make it
Kind Regards
