It's really hard to tell from those pics. Here is a good site to compare your plugs to.

the pic isn't that good, but to me, its looks like your running rich with a pretty good burn.

They are too hot, you need a heat range or two colder...

The discoloration on the threads. The cad plating shouldn't be worn off of more than one thread.
