What a divine smelling shave you had this morning, Bela. Your AdP fragrance looks like mine....almost finished.

Beautiful composed photo

Nice and close

There is nothing in that shave that show any signs of it being less than great.
Very beautiful razor

Any closer David, and you need an electron microscope

I really like the colouring and the depth-of-field use

We both chose Sandalwood today - you went with TOBS and I went with T&H
Very nice photo
I very much like the calmness in it.

Nice and a bit spooky

Very nice to see your beautiful photos again Erwin, you have been missed around here my friend.
This is very well composed IMO, great use of few colours and depth-of-field

WOW, you have been busy with the polish, Marco. That 34 is gleaming!

I had to wear sunglasses when taking that pic... Thank you, Sir!
