Or to further clarify, which fork or forks have their "tines" tips
face down on the table surface???

Go ahead, I dare you to try and guess :-)

All but the far right one is facing down. I think this because of the reflection of the bevel at the base of the tines. Ummmm. Maybe. :) Got me thinking though. Very good!

I would guess the far left one is the odd one out, although I am unsure if it is facing up or down. I say that is my vote because the tips of that fork are more in focus than the other three. If I had to guess, I would say it is facing up, while the other three are facing down. Or the other way around :-)

If I answer either of you, I increase the odds of someone guessing the right answer so, I'll just clam up here for now and thank you for your comments :-) Mark J

I think they are all upside down.
