21/01/2014 - Is that some goatee hairs I see floating before me? Oh bugger.

Finish : BBS

Comments :
Well, the MWF behaved for once, it's just a pity the lather didn't last for the usual amount of time. It didn't evaporate or thin out, there just wasn't enough of it. It was as though the lather stopped being made once it got to a certain amount. Very odd. Also, if I snick off some goatee hair accidentally, and without feeling a thing, I guess the razor's shave-ready.

Because digital camera lenses nowadays are so technically perfect, the end result is a clinical/machine-like image. So, to give a human-like feel to the photo, some of us feel the need to add chromatic abberations, etc. Keep on with the loupe.
