    Re: Fly

    Both of those "hobbies" are my passions as well :thumbsup: Although both can be equally expensive Two or three rods = Canon "L" lens = tough decision

    The DOF appears too deep for the top one and too shallow for the bottom one. I like the backlighting to bring out the details. I'm neutral about the background - seems it should be different somehow (vertical, color, graduated?).

    Did you tie these yourself?

    Nice use of the tweezers to show scale. I do not fish so the scale is helpful. Nice tight shots.

    I ahve to agree with Loupey on the background it does'nt seem to complement the flies. Other than that the placement and the use of the tweezers is excellent
