The three pictures are are of pens i have made. I am not sure if i have posted any before so i think this is my first. My photographic skills are minimal, these were taken in macro. I would welcome tips on making them better, while i think they look 'OK' i'm sure they could be a lot better

Very nice, they all look well turned and finished,some of the shapes don't inspire me but that is not to say that they are wrong.

Same as Ed about the shapes. , they are well turned , sure someone will be along with photo skills advice.
Get yourself a light box for photos, or make one, easy to do.

I to have to agree with Ed but that is just personal taste your turning and finish are spot on

All look good to me Ken, having said that I have not posted a single photograph, the size thing baffles me. Yes good work, keep it up.

Load up Picassa 3 free program once set up (easy) every pic can be right sized from then on I use it and have loved it for years now. Makes a great place to load your pics straight in, so many easy features. I am a mug with computers.

Ken I concur the pics are beaut love the quirky 2nd last pen white with lines. I say have a go and settle for that style people like, your family rave over and if you sell races out the door. All the best

Thanks for all the replies there were far more than i thought there would be. As for the shapes, yes lol. I wanted to try something different lol. Surprisingly they are quite comfortable to hold and use.
I can't get to the shed at the moment, i tore a calf muscle starting some bike for a friend that had been in his garage for three years without being run. I have tried twice to get to the shed but cannot make it that far plus i am on crutches so standing in front of a lathe is not comfortable.

A nice selection of pens there Ken
Not keen on the shape of the white one, but as already said, that's just personal taste.
