The photo needs help , loose the flash or at least diffuse it a little and you will get a better shot of the pen and use a more neutral background . What kind of finish are you using ?

If it was Apollo 13, one whole side of the pen would have to be missing, and the ink would be hiding in the clip for the duration of the write! :wink:
