That's some tying. I'd need the hubble telescope to tie them.

Thanks guys, I'm really glad you like them :D
Adam, I don't use glasses to tie them, although after a full night at the vice my eyes do get a little sore. You're question has prompted me to maybe pick up cheap magnifying set soon...I wonder how they'd work out :)
Thanks again both!

Re: New Toys and Small Flies
The flies and images are great.....My "inner fish" tried to slurp the sparkle midge....
Depending on your arrangement you may not be able to develop a deeper depth of field but you can stack several images with different focal planes using various computer software packages.....google image stacking if you are not already aware of the technique. You'll find an open-source package here that does a pretty good job.

Nice midges. I have a magnifying glass cannot get use to it. I just use it now for trimming if I want to get really detailed. I suppose you can get use to it. :)

Re: New Toys and Small Flies
I can only say that if you start to use magnifiers, give your eyes a rest now and then. Your detail work will improve as you will be able to see even smaller things...
My eyes are excellent as well but if I use the magnifiers, it hurts my eyes after a while but man, I can see the electrons moving around the atoms.
