Thanks guys.
They really do sparkle in the sun.
Tried always to get them to "sparkle"

Bring it tomorrow Dave mate I’ll have a look at what it’s like in the hand

 

[yorkshireman]

It definitely looks better in the hand, well done Dave mate

 

[Morse]

Yes it does sparkle more, as you have seen Keith.
I'm just a lousy photographer, well the sun wasn't out and I've been told that diamonds reflect natural light better.

Great looking pen Dave.

Hey, that blank looks familiar!

Getting photos that do the blanks/pens justice is definitely a fun challenge. As Phil passed along, natural light does help quite a bit. I ended up cheating and hiring a professional for my stock photography but I realize that's not cost effective for individual items like pens. Videos usually do a little better at showcasing the signature sparkle actually. Something to consider if you're selling your pens somewhere that allows video.

Nicely turned! Looks good with the new Leveche! Guess I need to do something with my kit here.... Decisions Decisions...

Thanks Tim.
Finished a Midnight skies DiamondCast today on a Tempest.
Raining so no sun so no photo. Later

Oh yea, diamond definitely stands out in the dark blue on that one! I was picking on Phil about the rainy weather the other day and I'm paying for it now... 3 days straight of rain headed my way.
