OH WOW @Frank C - check it out.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

@roshpens I have heard that you are a lover of orange inks.  Do you have any images to share?

@roshpens -- Is the second photo you posted (the one with the ink color alternating between yellow and brown) Autumn Oak?  

I don't normally like orange inks, but that one has intrigued me....

"It's very nice, but frankly, when I signed that list for a P-51, what I had in mind was a fountain pen."

Indeed it is Autumn oak. Glad I got just a small bottle. It is the most dry ink I have ever tried, struggles to flow. But when it does you get such magic.

Lamy 755 I got on Amazon for €80 instead of 125. However M was €40 more expensive than B, EF&F.

B is fat, as fat as my MB Virginia Woolf, B=BB.

It is a very soft writing nib.

In reference to P. T. Barnum; to advise for free is foolish, ........busybodies are ill liked by both factions.

Ransom Bucket cost me many of my pictures taken by a poor camera that was finally tossed. Luckily, the Chicken Scratch pictures also vanished.

The cheapest lessons are from those who learned expensive lessons. Ignorance is best for learning expensive lessons.

Congratulations on your first broad nib.  Many more will follow.
