Photo was taken with negative image mode on camera. Remote control is on top of a pair of TV listing pages taped together and sloped upward to give the sense of depth. A fluorescent lamp is shining from the left side to give it the blue tint and to help reduce the size of the shadow made by the camera flash.
I cropped, resized, and added a border in Photoshop.
This is my first entry ever. Please pour on the constructive criticism.
Thanks for checking out my pic.

I really like the way this image portrays the overwhelming choices like a highway running away from the viewer. The colours of the remote control really generate a techno type feel. There seem to be little bits of dust or stains on the RC that can be distracting and detract from the main impact. I don't know how the blue 'flare' was created but it adds to the techno feel.

I would like for depth of field, personally. But I do like this quite a bit. Almost seems surreal. 6.

The inversion is a neat idea here, but it doesn't work very well with the shadow of the remote. Otherwise, nice execution. I considered this idea myself!

What's with the weird blue shadow? Oh...I see, negative image.... Nice effect!

this photograph would be quite popular in tokyo japan in about twenty years. Since this is not tokyo 2024, its really not so good or popular in its over digital robotic way now.

This is cool - nice background of the prime time tv pages. But it looks a little like you've created a fake shadow (some kind of mask to remove the blye from the paper?) Perhaps making it a little blurred would have helped.

Good one, finally I see somebody showing choices in their shot.

Nice photograph

what is that blue shadow? it looks un-natural, almost like it was a negative - wait a minute, the whole image is negative huh? I get it, but I don't like it. Sorry 4
