Fly fishing - a whole new world!

I’ve spent a number of days in the past few weeks photographing fishing flies. It’s a subject I know little about but I’ve been amazed at how many different flies are available and how intricate they are! Technically it was challenging as we had to devise a system for photographing over 2000 flies as quickly as possible without compromising quality - not easy when you see how small some of the flies actually are! Here’s a couple of images from the shoot:

If you’re into fishing, then you might want to have a look at www.hartleyfly.com and browse their huge range of flies. The new images are still being uploaded but should be in place sometime in January 2012.
