Hello All,
The EDT is Santa Maria Novella Potpourri. A fitting complement to the Salter Vetiver.
Cheers,

Feather AC
Simpson Tulip2
De Vergulde Hand Soap
Trumper Pool of Clove
I’ll try again this week. I need more light so I can have a lower ISO, a higher shutter speed and a lower f-stop to enhance contrast.

Thank you Jim, but I’m very frustrated as it didn’t come out like it should have. I need light, light and light. I’ll do it again this week and try to suppress burnt out highlights, enhance sharpness and contrast.
I need to shoot the water at something like 1/3000s or even more and I’m hampered by the low light in the kitchen.

SOTN for Thursday (last of the ISD posts, I'm guessing)
'52 Superspeed with Feather - 1st day (and first ever shave with a Superspeed)
Arko stick lathered on face with C&E Best
3+1 passes
A passable shave. I can see that I need more time to get used to the Superspeed, but it has great potential!
Note the classy Tilex bottle in the background.
