Regardless of who or how this pen is photographed, it is truly wonderful.

Lately, I had the opportunity to buy an orginigal Parker advertisement leaflet form about 1936. I wanted to share some scans with you:

It's a busy time, but I couldn't resist taking a few test shots with my new lens. I've got a lot to learn about macro shooting, shaping the light, staging backgrounds, not to mention dust control. Christof, you are an inspiration!
(I think perhaps Flickr's auto-resizing has done something to the sharpness on these pics; the files I uploaded look better at their original sizes on Flickr.)
Minimal postprocessing (for exposure):

Hi Brandon
Your pictures look great, and I doubt I could tell you how you could do better. Thanks for sharing.
Well, dust... is really annoying. I'm not able to take pictures without dust, but I beat dust with Photoshop. Looking forward to your article.

Yes, Fountainpennetwork is online again.
...unfortunately my thread, which I contributed for over 8 years, has been damaged. Most links to Flickr are broken. So I'm thinking about saving some of the best contributions over here. But the first attempt failed....

Thanks for the kind words, but it seems that the task is not as easy as I had hoped...
But here is a new pen photo:

I love cap tops with logos!
...strange thing: there was a post from RobJohnson yesterday, concerning my idea to move some of my posts from FPN to here. Overnight it disappeard...?
Ah, Christof, we are so totally spoiled by your pictures! :) As long as you are keen to post them here, I and many other will gain much enjoyment from looking at them.
a perfect match:
