Sorry for the hackle 
Lovely. Really like the one on the left. I'm partial to the red in a March Brown pattern.
Thanks for posting.

Amazing ties, but I'm most intrigued by your photography set-up--"expensive glass" I think is a given 
, but are you working with a light-box/mutiple (natural) lamps as well?

Stendalen, No worries about the hackle! In my book your fly looks that much more of a true life fish catcher.

Thank you all for the kind feedback!
Regarding the hackle...it's cock hackle
My setup for photographing flies is really simple. I have a nice camera Nikon D7000. However the optics is my farthers old manual Nikkormat optics from 1963. I use an extension ring origin from the same time period
.
See enclosed picture for my setup.
