April 9 2006:
Shall I Shave?

You know the feeling. You feel like nothing on earth in the morning, and you’re not going anywhere. Is there any point? Hey, wait a minute I always like those bristly PADs so I’ll do an SP and then get the Gillette out.

Excellent... -- as always...!

Interesting comparing April 9th to April 7th. April 7th to me looks like you, but 9th doesn't. I like them both for the same reason!

Excellent SP. Love the tight, detailed framing.

It is usually more fun to get the camera out than the Gillette. I tend to agree. So, never miss a PAD, but the Gillette has a few days of every week. Great SP.

I beat you to it but didn't take a photo.
Someone else didn't though:

Welcome back Ray, great SP as always!

The rugged look suits you Ray! You just need a cigar and martini shaken not stirred!

Great image Ray.

There's no better feeling than that first shave after a couple days 'rest'. Super B&W PAD
Guest 10-Apr-2006 19:45
Welcome back!
...hey, shave patterns in it - that'd make for some interesting PaDs! :)

I like the 'George Michael' designer stubble look Ray - and it suits you to a tee.

Well, so you do it better than me. I normally make the sp and then think about a shave tomorrow. Great b&w and profile.
