Many of you know that I am color-blind. That sometimes manifests itself in not seeing what others see, so I'm trying an experiment here. Please help me out by letting me know which of the four pics below look better to you. Thanks!

Lou,

I also prefer the last picture, but I have learned my monitor (old, but huge) does not necessarily represent the majority view.

Well even though people's monitors may make things look different, it looks like there's consensus. My vote if for the last one too- the others are too dark and make the pen fittings look dark and drab, whereas they look brighter in the fourth picture. Also, even thought there's a shadow in all of them, it's just too prominent of a shadow in the first three.

I gotta go with everyone else ...the last one because of the lighter background is much sharper....or so it seems to me. Nice pen BTW

4 then 3.

Monitors also play a big part as well. I look at pics at home on my 15" laptop then on my 19" flat pannel at work. I am more aware of this on my pens as I see what they look like in person and how different some pics come across on the two different screens. Alot of times they actually look better on my laptop.

Sorry, didn't want to cloud the issue [:D] I still choose 4 from home [:D]

Thanks, folks! I hope I'll get some more replies over the next few days and maybe it will lead to better pics for posting here and on my website!

FYI, the last two pics were taken in my inexpensive tent with just the camera's flash. Go figure! [8D]

The more that I look at them if you brightened the first one just a touch it would be the best. Number one has the least amount of glare on the bottom barrel.
