Default Very rare Night Time Shave

Well after the wife informed me that she had to go in to work early tomorrow I decided that maybe I should just get my shave in tonight instead of in the morning....

Another shot of the Classic bay rum shave cream this time uber'd up with some of Mike Ratliff's bay oil & clove soap.. wow that stuff is smoooooooth shaving
The Shave Mac 28 silvertip...
a 11/16 spike point #65 Puma

possibly the best pic I think I have ever managed to take....

I know it's nowhere near the art some of you guys call pictures, but for me I thought it was pretty good
