Here are some of my thoughts.

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

When I got my Levenger ink to to with my L-tech, I went with Cobalt Blue. I think I should have picked up this one also. I like the color and the way I looks on Rhodia paper. I usually use engineering paper that is green so mostly every ink I own looks different on that except for black. Thanks for the post.

Some people see things that are and ask, Why? Some people dream of things that never were and ask, Why not? Some people have to go to work and don't have time for all that.

I'm going to post up a review of Kobe #37 Island Blue next. Because the two colors are similar and very very nice.

BTW, every time I see your avatar (great picture!) I think of Kresley Cole's character ---Carrow who believes that “laissez les bon temps roulez means plastic beads replace attire” - I giggle every time.

Amberleadavis, thanks! I don't know that author or her characters but I'm sure you know that the plastic beads replace attire sentiment is alive and well during Mardi Gras in New Orleans. ;)

      @Ceilidh -- Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color, not just B&W like I learned to process.  Whether they were doing the processing of the film themselves in one of the darkrooms, or sending their stuff out to be processed commercially?  That I don't actually know, but had always assumed that they were processing their own film.

      Kodachrome 25 was the most accurate film for clinical photography and was used by dermatologists everywhere. I got magnificent results with a Nikon F2 and a MicroNikkor 60 mm lens, using a manually calibrated small flash on a bracket. I wish there were a filter called "Kodachrome 25 color balance" on my iPhone camera.
