Good grief! I'd struggle to even tye a 24 without magnification, and here you are tying them and photographing them with a cellphone. You put me to shame, Wayne. RESPECT!

Dubbn, Howdy;

Great shots! Thinkin' that you are concentrating harder with the smaller ones
then you are with the larger. Mostly subconsciously ...
All said an done, the "phone" takes a fntastic photo ... but can you call home with it???

These shots are fantastic. The biggest bonus of seeing these shots at this magnification is in the quest for improvement. Not that it matters, and you'd never know the difference otherwise. But it's fun. This whole thread is excellent. The ease of sharing these phone shots great. Nice tying.

I do not think concentration or lack there of has much to do with the photos. I would venture to say that for me, it is lack of knowledge.

I appreciate the compliments on the progression. It is nice to have the convenience of the cell phone. The clarity is OK, but not in the league of those that know how to use a quality camera. I am looking to upgrade my lights. Perhaps the quality of my cell phone and camera pics will increase.

It is a work in progress, and something I enjoy dabbling in.

I better go now as concentration is eluding me.
