Phil - that is an excellent example of Mr. Grants work......I would really like to see a few more angled shots of that pattern, if you don mind..

Dana,
My apologies for leaving the impression that I took the photo of that George Grant woven nymph. I "collect" photos of classic flies tied by their originators when I encounter quality images on the Internet, mostly for historical purposes and as inspiration for my own tying. I should have referenced the source of that photo, which was

Despite owning a copy of Grant's book
The Master Fly Weaver, I'll never come even close to his artistry. In fact, I've quite trying.

Here's a different pattern but equally confounding--an Olive Creeper, from the topside and the bottomside.
