Yes, I know, my usual photos are pretty mundane. Today's shave just called for something more tasteful. As for the "look" of it, I had help with Picasa. I am still learning my way around this basic program but I liked today's result.
As for the razor, it is a 1907 Ever-Ready lather catcher and is, by far, my favorite SE razor. I have several lather catchers but this is the one I use most often. It may have originally been made for a wedge blade, though I'm not sure about that. However, it easily accommodates regular SE blades such as the GEM Blue Star I used this morning. Here are a couple of more shots of it:
Also, here is the original photo with a bit of brightening added (the original was way too dark) and the one I posted for the SOTD so you can see the difference. As you can tell, unlike the incredibly talented photographers we have here at DFS, I cheat.
