    Default Outside, 12 hours later, 6:30 pm

    It is now 6:30 pm. Overcast, no direct sunlight.
    I took the razors from last nite, pic taken inside in poor lighting and took them again with a tripod and a 2 count delay.
    Let me know what you think of the change in lighting and the resolution.
    Thanks

    Look good
    Collectors see the overall condition
    Restorers know what need to be done

    Agreed, that bottom one could stand a re-take but the others look good.

    Man! Do you have some oldies or what!

    Oh so "Old English" has been used by several smiths and sellers, from what I gather from old posts (Inc Packwood and apparently the genuine Barber)

    The photos are good, but the ambiant light is a bit more flat, and as a matter of pure taste I prefer the morning pictures that are a bit more "vibrant"

    And indeed, such beauties...
    Beautiful is important, but when all is said and done, you will always be faithful to a good shaver while a bad one may detter you from ever trying again. Judge with your skin, not your eyes.

    You can punch them up with your camera app. Depending on the phone they differ but most I've used have options for brightness, contrast, saturation and other adjustments. The main enemy in photos is glare. If you have good focus and at least sufficient light you should be able to tweak them pretty substantially.
