Not only do I like the flies you all show us, but I also like the way you picture them afterward. I know there was a post describing the methods used a long time ago. But can you update us on the current way using more modern equipment and methods if so?

below is "my take on fly photography" from my blog

Flytying: New and Old: MY Latest Take on Fly Photography - MY Simple Setup (flytyingnewandold.blogspot.com)

this is how i do it but i'm sure others have a better way

Can't ask for more than what you have given us here. Thank you so much! Looks like I am a LITLE short on some of the required equipment. ��
