This picture might work better in black and white and lit more dramatically. Also, if the light meter was off center I would like it a lot more. Very cool use of depth of field though.

Too straight on, by using a different angle this shot could be more intersting. The blurryness in the background also takes away from the subject.

The DOF seems a little shallow as a result the top sensor seems to be out of focus.

I'm sure what the product is. Nice comp that allows for text placement. Lighting is nice and the bokeh draws you in.
