Penmanship

Well, back to work today. I have a couple of large reports that need to be finished.
Although they will be written on the PC, I like to start planning with pen and paper.
The gold pen is a new to me Parker Inflection rollerball which is no longer made.

And last year I went for a long walk along the coast.

Sony α7R ,Olympus OM 50mm f/3.5 macro
1/8s f/1.0 iso640 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

I used to do that until I found that my handwriting had deteriorated to the point that I could barely read it any more so I just type it up or use Dragon Dictate. Mind you the latter has to be watched very carefully for it sometimes gives rise to, um, odd interpretations of what I've said, as I've sometimes found in my photo captions.
I like the purity of the colours here; the stark white of the background lets them stand out extremely well.

Very elegant looking pens. Must say it's years since I've used a fountain pen.

I do like a Parker, I had one for years, not as fancy as these ones though.

I was given a nice Waterford (made by) pen 3 years ago, it is the only pen I have ever been able to keep hold of and NOT lose... Love it. Like todays shot as well

I remember those in the 50's. It was called their P51, after the fighter plane.

I like the simple composition and stark feeling to the image. Beautiful pens, too!
