I present to test the ink Diamine Aqua Blue with a pleasant, azure color. The blue sky, clean water, recreation, vacation - looking at the color invoke such thoughts. Good drying time, the pleasure of writing, good technical characteristics - are the main advantages. I would recommend this shade of blue.

#50shadesofbluechallenge (link to the hashtag on Instagram) is the hashtag for the ongoing challenge over at the German PenExchange forum for July & August 2020. Since I inked up all my pens for this challenge with all the 50+ blue inks I have I also want to share my snapshots here.

 

 

Diamine Aqua Blue is a light blue bordering turquoise. In a wetter nib like my lovely 14k Zoom nib in a Sailor / Nagasawa Kobe Proske (1911s = Profit Standard) it flows nicely and develops shading.
