My buddy Derek Hauffe has been doing some macrophotography of some flies recently.
We're putting together an event in Birmingham at Good People's Brewery called Birmingham Barfly.
The concept is that you can bring your best flies, have 'em photographed, sit and have a drink and shoot the shit with other tyers. Hell, bring your vise and tie a few.
Below is the first prototype.
This low-res shot doesn't really do it justice, but it's hard to show when it's not printed. The level of detail is actually this:
So here's my question for the tyers. If there were to be an event in Chicago:
1. Would you show up?
2. Would you be interested in having one of your flies shot?
3. Would you buy a 18x12 high-quality print of your fly?
4. What would you be willing to pay for a print?
Little market research. Ideas appreciated. (Disclaimer: This is a Burr Harris fly and not my own.)
