Went out and bought the whitest popcorn I could find.
Used a laptop screen for the background. Illuminated with a booklight and the built-in flash.
Monkeyed with screen brightness, shutter speed, and flash intensity to minimize glare.
Cropped and adjusted levels.
I imagine this photo will make a lot of people scratch their heads and say "Huh?" but what the heck, it's my first entry and it was a good exercise in lighting.

Yes, the robot came from a cereal box, I believe it was Honeycomb. I kept meaning to throw it out, and then thought the expression on its face was worth shooting.
Note to self: DPC voters don't seem to like miniature figures...
