Thanks a ton for all the kind words @ronweston

I generally don't reply to you because I tapatalk on my phone.and it doesn't like to let me select what to delete from a quote easily at all.

But please know your encouragement is what keeps me getting creative and pausing to snap a pic even when I.rush my process. It's been a learning curve going from strictly Shave Secret base and Cremo rubbed in for shower shaves for years to brush and bowl lathers so you make me proud. Thank you for that brother.

Jerad

You are very welcome. I like the running commentary with your photos, Jerad. Keep it up and keep snapping those pics. And thank you for being here.
 

Wednesday has blossomed into a real cornucopia of magnificent photos and informative posts.


Theme week seems to be hitting its stride. More and more fun and creepy photos are appearing. Keep them coming gentlemen.



@Vesalio - Nice corner shot. Really good looking lather.
@David01965x - Fine closeup b&w, David.
@Dagwoodz - Excellent low level photo, Josh. Love the blade positioning.
@JBO667 - Great razor assistant! How did the grated shea butter soap work?
@skypsyd - Elegant photo, Dave ... with Jack Skellington & crew enhancements! Neat!
@ronindug - Like the finely angled POV with subdued colors.
@ClaudioBP - First-rate arrangement for the close-in shot.
@shm - Splendid layout, Søren. Nice little progression from left to right.
@Clint64 - The near colorless, multi-angled dried grass is a great backdrop for your shave gear.
@UngerWoo - Quite accomplished overhead closeup.
@Navarrsky - Good scattered alignment.
@Cash_Stronomer - Exceptional low angle to capture a really fine image. The amorphous globules lend a sense of regality.
@eezee - An enticing shave expertly captured.
@Doug 57 - That's a fine looking brush handle, Doug. Congrats on the Dubl Duck win.
@mcdig - Very tasteful arrangement, Mark. Great brush and razor combo.
@cmh737 - Excellent seasonal colors, Chris. I can see that skull saying: "I should have used MORE Tabac!"
@Bobcat - A very handsome shave, Bob. I'm anxious to see how long that blade will remain true.
@imcndn - The pic is a real enticement ... I think I'll buy the Emperor combo real soon!
@blzrfn - The photo is a beaut, Dave! How was the Stahly?
@Sdm84 - Magnificient picture! Exceptional color. Razor and brush placement quite inventive.
@LoungeLizard - Neat photo. The Black Beauty is a fine razor; I've been using mine on a "7". Like the figurine.
@azwetshaver - Nicely done overhead pic, Gabe.
@nikonNUT - Quite a fetching shave.
@doc47 - Another envy inducing picture, Dan.
@CBLindsay - Outstanding shot, Chris. Love that brush handle.
@CT23 - Superb execution, Chris. The rock setting, with scattered lichen, is perfect.
@Jnatcat - Fine array, Will. Like the neck duster.
@DabblinRazors - Great, Eddie ... the best flaming frame I've ever seen!
@samlark - Love it, Sammy. Great razor protector.
@ram57 - Excellent original with just enough overlay. A shave worth waiting for.
@TheVez2 - Marvelous photo, KJ! Love the figurine. And that Pendragon handle....
@Hanover - Awesome, Mark! A great scene for your photo.
@Smooth Steve - Now this is a great spooky shave pic!
@Rxdude - Very nice high angle shot.
@TheKushFather - Attractive overhead photo. That's one fine razor handle.


I hope everyone's evening has been going well and you are looking forward to a great shave on Thursday.

It's time for me to slip away now. See you soon.

It didn't do too bad at all. I think it'll set a little better after a few hot water soak and lathers. It grated to almost a powder and was a bit odd to pack. I ended up superlathered with Cremo Original. I'm spoiled on the Cremo slick! It's familiar and comforting.

And now for tonight's shave!

Back to Williams for now. Fourth on a Personna red. My head likes them and my 53 Super Speed pairs well, but blade angle requires a HUGE change from a Feather! Feels like I almost have to 90 to my head in some spots to get close to my usual results.
