Popcorn Bokeh

Using some caramel popcorn from the bakery I wanted to create my own bokeh with food instead of lights. I was going to string up the popcorn at various height and distance from each other but after my first test shot I decided to keep them on the table as the OOF window light and the empty space between them looked pretty cool as is.

 

Lighting is provided by 1 speedlight off camera left pointed in such a way to spread the light over the entire group of popcorn.
