Nice. :)

 

Try one with the bead in the thorax behind the hackle, gives the hackle more movement in the water.

I'm not saying you should tie them all this way but it's worth having a few in the box.

You could also try a more sparse hackle as well as a variation.....personal findings is less is better; it leans to more of a sider style with sparser hackle.

Looks good though regardless

can I ask what kinda of cameras you guys/gals are using and what kinda lens if using a SLR

 

A Panasonic DMC-LZ2 point and shoot. Good macro on it but the main thing is setting the white balance to your tying lights, if you don't do this the photo has a colour cast to it.
