Harry,
camera is just a compact digital, Kodak LS743. Used the close up setting and the model was co-operative. Challenge is a tying, but getting the materials might be challenging enough |

Wayne,
yes, that is pretty amazing, One of your own? |

Oh no, it is tied by Ezio Celeschi a well known Italian tyer.
One of the best realistic tyers I have seen has to be Paul Willock, an English tyer. Check out some of his stuff here www.paulwhillock.com , sit back and be amazed. |

Wayne, yes, amazing, he describes some of the stuff as art, and I can only agree. I wonder how much use some of these things would be in a real fishing context, but they are great to look at. | ||
