    Razor: Genco Gold Seal
    Brush: C2 badger
    Lather: Irisch Moos
    Astringent: Thayers Witch Hazel

    Result: An early shave and an early start of the new SOTD. Going to a party which means I will see my bed in the wee hours or later. The shave was extremely refreshing and I'm all BBS ready to go.

    This evenings hardware was...

    Pre : Hot water
    Soap : Proraso green tub, two drops of glycerine
    Brush : Progress Vulfix 404
    Razor : Gillette Superspeed flare tip
    Blade : Feather
    Post : Cold water, alum block, Nivea AS balm

    Finish : Smooth

    Comments :
    No photo this time as lethargy struck. The glycerine did the trick, regarding Proraso soap previously drying out quickly. Methinks that was 43p well spent.

    Amazing photos, what camera are you using? By the time i take a photo with the Canon F1, rush it off to the chemist, get it developed, wait for it to come back, scan and post it, it's a week old, is there a better way?

    Hello there Grazor,

    I gave up 35mm photography many years ago in favour of the digital format, I use a Nikon D80 with a pretty standard 18-80 lens more than adequate for most photographers, I would like the faster Nikon prime lens, but then I think to myself would I really get that much better photo's from a lens that costs around £180 UK pounds probably but I'm pretty much happy with the quality from the standard lens that came bundled with the kit.

    Your always great with colors, Max.
    I like the way you've created green through the yellow scales in front of the blue, which balances the image with the green on the left

    lotse, wonderful composition as usual, plenty of light on the blade and the light behind helps pull the viewers eye to the blade also.
