Last time I shaved my entire face (with a straight-edge razor) I think I was in 8th grade. Perhaps 9th.

Until Thursday night. So… I thought I should take some pix of this momentous occasion… since it will probably be another 10 years before I do it again.

Also, got creative and started taking some contrast photography.

Here they are.

Special happy birthday wishes go out to Ralph from all of us here at cozbaldwin.com! I went up to Allentown tonight to be present at his surprise birthday party. It was good to see you again, buddy. But god, what a fucking hike it was.
