Blackstone Daintree Green

Recommended Posts

A while back, probably last year, the JustWrite Pen Co. worked at developing some inks for the Australian market, and while the selection is small it's quite nice. These inks are especially noted for their sheen. The Daintree Green is inspired by the Daintree Rainforest so you won't find a murky green here. This ink reminds me of the RO Spearmint, but a different color of course, more yellow, less blue. This ink has a really nice clarity of color that sometimes seems lost.

 

I didn't have any problems with the ink. It should be readily available in Oz from JustWrite and in the US from Anderson Pens. If you like the brighter greens, you might want to give this one a try. While I'd prefer the mythical Green Cashmere this is a good summer's day ink.

Thank you for your review as always, it is very thorough and informative. I have been using this ink for a week or so and absolutely love it. I am more often than not, reminded of Mont Blanc Irish Green which is one of my favourites after Diamine Sherwood. I really like the jewel tones of Daintree as well as its wetness.

If there is righteousness in the heart, There will be beauty in character. If there is beauty in character, There will be harmony in the home. When there is harmony in the home, There will be order in the nation. When there is order in the nation, There will be peace in the world. Bhagawan Shri Satya Sai Baba

      Thanks for the info (I only used B&W film and learned to process that).   Boy -- the stuff I learn here!  Just continually astounded at the depth and breadth of knowledge in this community! Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      >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,<   I'm sure they were, and my answer assumes that. It just wasn't likely to have been Kodachrome.  It would have been the films I referred to as "other color films." (Kodachrome is not a generic term for color film. It is a specific film that produces transparencies, or slides, by a process not used for any other film. There are other color trans

      @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.
