Izaak, Howdy;

Sure appears to be a pretty fly.
At this range it sorta looks like a gnat on an elephant's butt :? ;) :lol:

That is much better. I was beginning to think you had some dust on your lens when you took that fruit picture. (friendly humor to exaggerate how small the fly is)

Impressive fly, Tom, just as I have grown to expect. I imagine this would be a very effective fly for finicky trout.

Exceptional job of capturing the true color of the peacock herl.
