I have a very good friend who was a former photographer and a very, very creative one at that. He used to have a nice studio in Toronto and did some work for me in my Computer days.

We got together for dinner earlier in the evening and I asked him to take my portrait, just to immortalize the beard. I have to shave it this week due to images for Drivers License and Health Card. No fancy lighting, we used what was available, which wasn't much. The backdrop is a bare wall.

Here are the results. PP was done by me.

Peter, I'm sure he's preparing his beard for his role as Father Christmas 2020! 😁

Nice image, Art!

Yes, amongst other "names" Father Christmas rings nicely! :lol:

Beard is officially gone now. My career as a budding Mall Santa is over.

Health Card and Drivers License images are done with. I am now lighter some $230 or so. Tax tax tax tax tax tax tax tax tax ..... <_<
