This famous Great Basin bristlecone pine tree is known as Methuselah, and she is close to 5 thousand years old 🤎

So, a few days ago I cleaned & filled my Hexo with Parker Quink Blue-Black ink. Just now, I decided to doodle a bit on photo paper to see how the ink behaves on smooth/shiny surfaces. Spoiler alert: Besides Schneider's Royal Blue for the rollerballpen, I've found my new everyday blue for fountainpens. 😁

Picture 1 (printed with the ship photo): AgfaPhoto Glossy inkjet paper 4" x 6":

Oh my gosh, what a terribly bad paper! Even during the test print for my printer settings, the photo came out looking shabby. And when writing with the fountain pen, the ink was absorbed poorly and unevenly.

Picture 2, Tetenal Spectre PE Lustre inkjet paper 4" x 6", ~ 12-15 years expired:

The Quink fountain pen ink applies well, has sharp edges, and even on this very old paper, it immediately seeps under the PE protective layer and dries instantly, just like printer inks do (and should!). I didn't expect the Quink to work so well on photo paper.

Unfortunately, Tetenal Spectre has been out of production for a long time and I'm currently living off my remaining stock. Oh, and on regular paper, the Quink Blue-Black behaves just as well. I'm in love! 🙂🙃🤩
