i like it i think pheasant tail would look better for the tail.
it would look more like a may fly pattern if you did that

I like it, although very bright, but the trout will love it I think, it's very similar to one of the flies I have tyed before, but with pheasant tail fibres for the tail, green body hackle and a natural coloured french partridge hackle.

For photos, does your camera have a macro setting? If so set it to that, mine has macro down to 1cm away, which means that the lens is only 1cm away from the thing I am taking a picture of. Your photos aren't too bad anyway you could try putting a backdrop to the fly, mine is just a peice of paper folded in half to make it stand up.

Well done and keep it up!

Looks good to me Ed, it's your fence you need to sort out, not your photography
