LOL nice. Good shot with great blur behind. I might like to see a bit more "tree" on zoom out but this is a great shot destined for my first page.

I really like this one, the b/w works well and it is a "funny" idea.

I like this in black and white and that you didn't lose a lot of detail on the popcorn. I think I would have liked to have seen more of the branches so the popcorn in the back was not cropped and that there was a little more space for the one on the left corner.

Unique concept, but the sbjuct seems to close to the center

I love this! I always wanted a popcorn tree. The lighting is great- it is a different take on popcorn.

Very nice post-processing, and a good shallow DoF capture.

Nice unique idea here. I like the dof which makes the background more simple.
