Dont believe it. Its a fake.

I can never get my bathroom eagle to stay still long enough to photograph.
You're seeing it all wrong ... it's an impromptu shot ...

He's lying on the floor, the mirror is on the wall, threw hit stuff in the air, just as bathroom eagle swooped down. Gem of a shot!

... or is it staged? :D

Champion composition, mate. Lovely job. Pretty good shave, too - I'm getting "a thing" for those Rubberset style brushes and you know, I'm not a brush man.
 
Arko face lathered
Bay Rum & Eucalyptus PSO
Simpson Pure Badger
Muhle R41
Astra SP (1)
Alum, witch hazel
Pinaud VIBR
50:50 mix VIBR and T&H Sandalwood ASB

Not used the Astras for a while and with blade expertimenting had pretty much written them off. Found an odd blade in my travel pack whilst tidying the den so chucked it in. Fantastic shave. Needless to say the 80 odd blades I had left have found their way back into my rotation.

Enjoy the weekend gents.

Thank you for all the kind words, I am really getting back into my photography again which is nice. Fishing line arround the soap box always works well. :)
