comparing 2 pear''s ASET and IS images

[Marjan12]

Hi everyone -

Can you help me compare these two images? They are of two different pears, one of them I''m just using as a "measuring stick." (When I look at the ASET reference charts, it''s hard for me to compare a pear shape with the round ones, b/c the colors are so different....)

Thanks as always-
Marjan

They both look similar, which is the pear you are considering? Do you have the actual photograph of it too please? First image of the one on the right which I presume is the one you are interested in shows a distinct bow tie, second image not so much in Idealscope. Check with the vendor as to how much of a bow tie the pear actually shows. The ASET shows more green than red, this is usual for fancy shapes. Both pears have a good shape to me, the type of pear shape and length to width ratio I like. You can see from the ASET that there is more intense light return in the centre of the diamond around the bow tie area, less so from the rest of the diamond. I would like to see an actual photo in order to get a better idea if you have one please. I think I know what vendor the pear is from and if so I would absolutely trust this seller's expertise and judgement.
