Tried putting the flash under the table...But also was dissapointed at the new bags of popcorn. Is a larger double bag, and it takes longer to pop, so it burns some of it while waiting out the extra time.... Sigh .LOL

cool shots and idea ... but microwave popcorn ..yuck haffta to make it the old fashion way with a big old doulble boiler pan and use pure olive oil and a few pinches of lawreys seasoning salt.. then big huge bowl and only real butter melted in the pan with a few dashes of salt after that.. (forgive me i am a popcorn a holic- need a 12 step group and even though i am sick right now .. now i have to go make some .. you got me going!! HAHA ) great shots! the bottom one appeals to me the most..

the trick to not burning popcorn is to sorta tend to it and shake it as its cooking ( popping) and then open andd close the lid as you go take it off the fire when it gets 3/4th way done... a pan with holes on the lid for air is most effective.. i could eat popcorn till the cows come home .. or untill my scale breaks! love your pictures very creative!

Hmm. Not sure which I like the best. But the second one really is good. On the other hand the first is good too. I think you really have something going on with the light from the bottom. Bsteph
