I'm sure you will get other comments on this shot Graham, but man, I think you did a great job with this fly. Shooting from a side view gets most everything in focus especially the head and thorax. Well done!

Poor guy looks a little pooped... Excellent, excellent detail. I would be tempted to crop a bit on the left to de-center the fly.

Very cool Graham. I wish the perch was more simple, but the fly grabs the eye with its color and sharpness.....................Jim

Terrific details here, Graham, especially in the larger version. The colors also pop nicely even though they're subtle.

Excellent detail in the fly where it counts, Graham, and as noted by others, I like the colors. I also like the perch, but i'll second Phil's suggestion re the centered comp.

I'll second Scott.. great colors & detail where it counts. And a bit off the backside would be better IMO Graham.
This was in the early coolness of the morning, when the fly's basically dormant?
