The Hemingway Photo Thread

[jmccarty3]

Bravo, Franco--your images are an inspiration!

Thank you, my friends, for your kind words.

 

Let me post another one: Hemingway and Spencerian exercise. They look good together...

Yesterday, I found close to my home a small Frangipani tree (Plumeria alba) in flower. I took an inflorescence home to photograph it, and then I created a small set with the Hemingway. I added to the set a few baby bananas, a kind of small but very sweet and creamy fruit with a thin, bright yellow peel, sometimes also called Lady Finger banana. With the Frangipani flower and the baby bananas, I renamed for the occasion my pen as the "tropical Hemingway"...

 

Here are a couple of shots:

It is never a bad moment to pick up the Hemingway...

 

Here signing the journal ready for the press, a kind of pleasant occupation required any four months.

Beautiful! I am so tempted by Montblanc 139 after reading your post

[Boris-Ludwig]

Fantastic thread with beautiful photos of those Hemingway moments. I've enjoyed walking through this thread. Thanks

Thank you, Pravda.

 

I am a secret esteemer of your beautiful collection and deeply grateful for the quantity of information and insights you provided through the years on rarely seen and extraordinary Montblanc pens.

 

I have never uploaded any photograph to Instagram. My "public" are you, fountaipennetworkers pal, and a similar group of passionate pennophiles in Italy, where I have my account is registered under the name fufluns.

The level of sober details of this pen made of it a true masterpiece.

With a nib that sits between a skinny F and a generous EF, my Hemingway helps both in writing and drawing...

Italian, and with such talents? I ask to name you our own little Leonardo, from Forums.

As with its "Big Red" Parker invented the orange fountain pen, I am not discussing which one is "more correct" among the two colors.

 

Montblanc calls its own color "coral" and, in fact, it is someway less vivid and a bit less red than that of a modern Parker Duodold.

 

Two great pens to my eyes.

Very fine compositions, indeed!

That really is the loveliest of the writer's editions! Until I saw this pen I thought that accolade belonged to the Dostoevsky but I am now converted to the Hemingway.
