 I considered this for "What Doesn't Belong?". I composed it focusing on the condom - figuring to draw the eye to it. Now, I am not sure if I should not have the whole bowl within the depth of field. I might get hammered. But, it is too late to reshoot, so I am going with it. I did little editing -- adjusted levels and blurred the background. Here goes nothing.

This reminds me of a friend I have who passes out stuff like disposable razors and condoms to the 18+ aged trick-or-treaters
