 A crazy idea that came into my head as soon as I saw the challenge. This one was alot of fun, but it was a little embarrassing at the check out when I bought the items for the basket.


Judging by the final standings, it appears that my attempt at crude humor was not very effective!

Ok. 48 seconds on the laugh-meter.

I think it might actually be a bit more effective without the slightly more commonplace Gas-X and Jock Itch.

Simply arranging a bunch of expected, simple gifts like the razor, scope, basic bathroom goodies that every guy expects in a "gift basket", along with maybe some other things like cologne and maybe a watch or something to really set the mood and slide that Butt Paste in there in the middle.

I actually worked in the health field for a few years and I NEVER heard of that stuff.

I was given a VCR cassete about shark cartilage that had been relabeled in black marker "Keiran's Barnyard Porn" once though.

MY GAWD!!! What do you go out to buy? hehehe I just find the lighting from the flash puts me off this photo a bit. It's not even enough for me. I would of liked to have seen more light on the basket too!

Okay didn't know how to rate this the first couple times I looked at it. But I like the humor in it, I like the soft lighting, although I think I would loose the picture of the man and dog, doesn't really add much IMO.

Butt paste is a thing? Good lord. Cute idea. Lighting is a bit harsh.

Colorbalance a litle out of control here. Think also that composition and point of view could have been much better.
