Trailing Plugs Half Black, Half White. Leadings Black. Reason?

i took out my spark plugs to change them and the trailing side were half white and half black and the leading ones were all black. what could cause the half and half condition?

Coloration like that is highly dependent on what kinda gasoline you run.
