Greetings from the Critique club
Very funny and original shot. After reading your descripition I applaud you for coming up with it.
I think what hurt this image was a lack of light. Hence the noise.
What I've found when working with bad light is to try and compensate by reflecting as much of it as possible to increase what you have.
A few pieces of white paper set around the popcorn could have added enough to brighten the image where you wouldn't have had the noise problem. I'm assuming you were working with a hotel lamp.
Possibly you could have tried to not zoom as much as you did and given the illusion of a macro by cropping,, but I'm not 100% sure on that.
It really is a good shot and the humour factor is a plus.

FYI, I was stuck in Albuquerque all week and this is all I could come up with in my hotel room. I ate Pete too.

| They look like eyes. There's a lot of noise and out of focus. It's a unique photo though. |

| Very cool idea, but seemingly blurry... perhaps out of focus or interpolated? |

| What is this? I do find it interesting trying to figure out exactly what this. |

Technical: fits the challenge. Exposure composition lighting good, focus seems too soft.
Personal: Cute idea, but the grain and mushy focus don't work for me. This reminds me of a 70's children's show character or something ;-)
My vote: 5 |

| Good idea, but the background is unattractive. |
