@Jakob, nice pics!

Jakob -- masterful as always. I particularly like your color photo; a nice change of pace and extraordinarily well done.

Thank you gentlemen. I have recently aquired a light-box. It has done a lot of good for my colour photos, next thing will be some proper lighting equipment.


Regards.

Jakob

Still early to say, but whipped very well the Omega cream this morning.

Good one Søren

Thanks,
I'll return the compliment - two great shots, again.

And my compliments also to "the rest of the gang" in the SOTD section - you guys know how to put a smile on a (new-shaved) face

144 different pics this week! (Just went back through the whole thread to count em all... ) So, when do we start collecting and selecting images for a "Shave a Day" calendar? Does anyone else think that would be a cool idea? A full color page-a-day calendar of shaves?

Friday's shave was forshawdowing to my drive to Virginia. We made it past Roanoke until a major snow storm locked us in a Day's Inn for two days! Luckily we got out today and finished our trip. A usual 10 hour drive took nearly three days! Thankfully I had the following:

I really like this pic. I don't think anyone is going to have a thing on you come St. Patrick's day heh. The Green Lantern might be a bit jealous.

Nice pic, Phil - how is that BK8 working out?

Excellent shaves and pics gentlemen!

I love the BK8, I can make it act like 2 different brushes and I love the knot size, A great brush. As far as the straights, I am really enjoying them when I have time. Henry was instrumental in my seeing if I would like them or not. Very nice shaves. I just found out I will inherit my great grandfathers setup.
