A Really Great Color Combo! (Added Pic of Tying Station Area)
Even though it's a simple combo, it just works! Have one guy that every year he gets a bunch of 1/16 Ball head jig I tie in Copenhagen Blue Rayon chenille and hackle tail this same
Silver/Blue/White combo! This one just happens to be a Roadrunner.

Love it skip, one of my favorite color combinations also. I just like my head to be white but I'm sure that will work just as good.

Nice Skip. The swivel setup looks different like it has been split to add the blade. Would you share a pic of your light and camera setup? You always have great shots of your jigs. The light balance is right on!!

Okay ifish here you go...I use a Sony Cyber Shot DSC H7 and I always use the MACRO setting and take pics using both the Auto Setting and then the portrait. I take one with flash and one without. I always have my tying light on as it's close enough to add to the over head light. I make sure to position my self so the shadow doesn't get in the way of where I will Crop it. I do use my editing software that came on my iMac. I use to use the Picture Manager on my PC before I went Mac. I always adjust the light or darkness if needed and also use the contrast too. I get as close as I can taking the picture so farther away on if taking a picture of a lot of jigs. Once I am happy with it I pick the best of the 4 or more pictures and use that. Sometimes I don't feel the need to take 4 or more of every one and then just maybe one or two shots.
It's just something you have to do kind of playing with adjustments on camera and software. If you want to take pictures of Florescent colors under a black light it's all different and even the camera setting all are different. The camera is the most important part. Full HD and Macro is big!
If I missed anything please just ask.

Thanks Skip. I was curious about your setup and that explains a lot of what you are doing. You always have great shots and of course great material to shoot. You have been great for this board over the years and I really do enjoy seeing your artwork! Thanks again and I hope you are catching some fish!
