  8. Today, my shave was approaching a BBS, but definately a DFS. \
    Prep: Hot shower, goat's milk soap, and Avon conditioner on beard, and Noxzema on face once out
    Shick I 1, Chinese shick blade (3), Proroso green creme, and Noxzema between passes. NS, SN, and XTG
    Nivea aftershave balm, and Old Spice AS

    I enjoy the feel of the Eucalyptus and Menthol on the second and third passes!
  9. Congratulations Grandpa!

  11. "Big" unknown Sheffield wedge (can't read the maker but says "Celebrated" on the blade)
    last minute change to TOBS Sandalwood

    I really like the way these older wedges shave. Very nice shave this morning, have a good one.

  12. Mike, thank you for your very kind words.
    You can call me Celestino as I still consider myself a bit too young to be addressed as 'sir'. :D

    I still have much to learn with regards to photography as I just started a dedicating some time to my SOTD pics around 2 years ago and haven't actually taken pics of anything else. :ashamed001:
    I have been using a Nikon D7000 with an older Nikkor manual 50 f/1.4 lens. I really enjoy this combination and I use a very simple editing feature on my Linux Ubuntu OS called 'gthumb'. :)

  16. Another great shave today. It is getting harder to get a shave that is unsatisfactory. The balde is the one variable that makes the most difference. They all get dull, but blades that I thought were marginal early on are now giving me excellent shaves.

  18. Perhaps you've got some more to learn, but you've really got an eye for composition and light! :happy088:

    I usually use my not-so-very-smart phone for SOTD pics (old model, hence the crappy quality) and sometimes I steal my son's Canon 650. My own Canon uses film rolls, so that's not practical for SOTD ;). I edit in The Gimp on Linux Mint (yeey!).
