Thanks a lot!
I also thought so, but it seems that the hat idea was not very clever. I think aguapreta was right to think that many wouldn't realize this was a coconut, thus many voting this one down as "staged".
I hope to score better in the future.

Unique and creative. I might hae toned down the light a little and tried for more DOF.
