Great photos for sure. What about the hair-cut ?

I love when I see photos of this quality, I spend lots of time admiring the subjects, especially when the setting differ and/or they show movements and finite details. Thank you

I love the look of the gold on Rolex watches. It is the perfect shade and has perfect lustre.

We need one of Bluesy with the gold plated anchor next to Subbie with the chrome plated anchor, maybe Platty in the background, just out of focus!?!
