Lefty - nice shots, nice hats, great pup (who really is growing fast)

Borsalino for me, on the way to meet with prospective wedding clients

Lefty, love the composition on those photos. The one of your wife just needs more light on those magnificent eyes. Off topic, what camera do you use?

The beard is spectacular this season.

Thanks Buler - and everyone else. Most of the time, I'm posting with snaps taken with a Nikon D80. The last couple of times I've posted have been snaps taken using the Nikon Coolpix P300 we recently picked up on sale from B&H. All are straight out of the cameras without any manipulation (pre or post).

Sunny day in Minnesota. Out and about this moring in my Stetson Viscount. Tim (AKA - Cane Maker) reminded me that I had not worn the hat in a while. Marvelous hat. I like to wear the hat with a small center dent. I like the height of the sides of the fedora - it shows the color and texture of the felt.

Camel colored is truly stunning inperson.

Brooks Brothers, "pure fur felt" Made in Colombia! Si!

About 10 years old and not worn much as it is too big, despite being 59/L.

D-Guy, Nice shot. Looking at the CA4LA site, it seems to cater for the trendy crowd.

John - nice FP today

Eric - I like the Viscount (even with the back bow)

Ray - shame the Brooks Bros doesn't fit too well; its a nice looking hat.

Portis for me this afternoon

David, I liked the scale and height of that Borso you were sporting this morning, seemed very right for you, or was it the angle? Whichever, it struck me as a great fit.

Thanks, Ray. There is probably at least a little distortion in the shot with the Borsalino - wide angle lenses for cell phone self portraits are like that, as you know.

Having said that, the Borso has a nice 5 3/4 high crown and 2 5/8 brim which I think makes great fedora proportions. The Portis I was wearing today has a lower crown (about 5 3/8 I think) and it shows. I don't wear that one so much, but I like it - mainly for the cool ribbon colour as much as anything.

D-Guy, very nice photo with the shop as background!

John, looks really good your VS.

Eric, very nice, looks good with the back bow!

Ray, looks good your BB, that's a shame is not your size!

David, very nice Portis, the felt color and ribbon looks great!

Thanks Manfred, hope you had a good weekend.

Discussion on the Borsalino Marque Grand Luxe yesterday, prompted me to start Monday with mine
