Drag yourself away from the telly.

Take them pens outside in this beautiful sunshine and do them again with a white background.

Get rid of that great big chunk of salt and lay them flat.

Cor blimey some people just don't listen init?

Nice pen and a hot looking blank. You are going to have to do something about the photos, it's really letting your pens down. Which rev iPad have you got is it the 1? It might be worth having a look on the camera lens/glass and see if it is dirty.

The trouble with photographing it on a chunky carpet is that the camera is focusing on that, use white paper and stop being lazy and using the carpet:thumbs::thumbs:

Very nice Vic. A lovely pen from a lovely blank... but they're right you know.... the photo isn't up to the standard of the blank and pen.

It does look a cracking blank Vic. If you buy a decent camera it would pay you to talk to Peter (Buckeye) . With him being a professional photographer I found his advice invaluable !!!!:thumbs:

I'm retired from all that....nearly....any point and shoot camera about £60 will do the job.

Looks like a lovely pen Vic and I can see why Rowdy calls it "Night Fire" :thumbs:
Your photos will improve no end just by putting the pen on a white background (A4 piece of paper) :winking:
