This is a product shot for an audio product. Canon XSi, 50mm, ISO200, f8, 1/160. Product is sitting on a piece of glass with a diffusion under it and lit from below with a speedlight. Above is another speedlite through a DIY stripbox that is diffused at an angle. Last, a white card sit just in front and below to bounce light into some shadows.Check It Out

I like the barbs against the sun. I do agree that the wires at the top are a distraction. The horizon line is slightly tilted up on the right. I would suggest to either make the horizon flat or make it obvious that the tilt is not a mistake.Check It Out
