Aaahhhh.....Arlington! My favourite Great shave and shot!

Thanks for the kind words. Much appreciated.

One Arlington is enough for a great shave, but 4! Have you come down from the clouds yet, Soren?

It was a great shave indeed
But I broke in a new brush and my latest straight acquisition was in use also, so I figured it wouldn't hurt to go all-in on the software

Fantastic shot, Soren, as always! Was it a silent shave today?...no music?

Thank you very much David
Yes it was silent today, I felt like some quiet time would be nice before a hectic workday.
But I did listen to Ella on my MP3 player on my way to work

Excellent shots my friends, it great to see the two of you "going straight"

Thank you kindly, Rune. Straight shaving is really funny and definitely effective. From now on, I'm going to rotate between straights and DEs. I want to enjoy both worlds.

 

[KM-instructor]

Brilliant photographs gents, always a pleasure to view.
