Why are copper fittings brighter than copper pipe?

I'm going to be building something - not plumbing - with 3/4" copper
pipe. As you can see from this image, the pipe is a different "color"
than the fittings. The fittings are bright copper, the pipe itself is
much duller.
Anybody know why that is or more importantly, how to shine up the
pipe so that it matches
the fittings?
