 Obviously, I'm hoping the humour of the situation helps my score. hehehe
The lovely and ever so patient model is my dear friend Molly. The weirdo in the plastic-wrap... is me.

As with a lot I've done, I always see the issues after the fact. I'm sure I'll get a couple comments to confirm what I've already thought about having the ISO too high, imperfect focus, and glare off the box of plastic-wrap. hehe
I need to get a faster lens, maybe at 18-70mm.

PP: RAW adjustments, crop, border via canvas size, unsharpen mask, image size

A man walks into a psychiatrist's office wearing nothing but saran wrap...the psychiatrist says, "I can clearly see you're/your nuts."

While amusing as a concept, this photo doesn't work for me. It's too dark, there is glare on the glad wrap box (and on the glad wrap itself), and the candle doesn't add anything to the image, other than another distraction.

I love the expression on her face!

Hahahaha! I like the girl's expression. Maybe the exposure is a bit off.

At least it's not another condom photo. I think the 'glad' box could have been moved out of the photo but then again, 'glad' is kinda funny. I don't think 'Safety' is funny but that's just me and I'm not really hip to seeing some dudes b*tt crack even if it is wrapped in cellophane. No wait, I'm thinking now that its worse that I'm seeing some dudes a** wrapped in cellophane!

This one is more on a funny side compared to many others. I must say very good for the thought itself. The execution could have been better IMO. Example: the whole frame is almost flat, a bit more contrast would have helped.

Oh, that's just too funny. Kinda wish the lighting was just a tad better to really see the look on her face.

LMAO....I just wish this was technically a better image, seems underexposed and DOF needed to be deeper

HAHA! Ok ...the Glad package on the table adds to this photo.

Funny shot. I gave you a 5.

Ok, that is just over the top funny. I wasn't expecting this to show up in the line of photos. What is even funnier is that the women doesn't seem to be insulted by this move at all. Hehe...

yikes, you're making me itch

The look on her face is priceless! My only complaint is that the light is a wee bit flat and it's too harsh on the clingfilm box, makes it hard to read. Otherwise, this is hilarious and nicely composed.

I'm at a loss for words.......

The concept is hilarious, but the image quality is a bit lacking. The straight-on flash is doing a nasty job with the butt glare, and the glare on the Glad wrapping package... and the rest of the scene is poorly lit. Very funny stuff, though!

I don't even know what to say.....Oh I know. Why is she laughing?
