Even though I don't have/use a dedicated photo studio for taking pictures of my flies, here is the same fly captured with the camera (upper image) and with the scanner (lower image).

Photo vs. Scan
It is hard to capture the subtle color and flash blends on baitfish imitations, due to the highly refractive nature of certain fly-tying materials. Often the fly will appear different, depending on the angle it is viewed from.

Great idea! Vlad.
I think the scanner get more depth and sparkles! I love it!
I will have to try my scanner too! Thanks for the tip! : )
Mark,
I agree! I used to scan my SW flies before I got the digital camera, but still like the look of a scanned fly.
I remember when I was studying forestry and trees in college, I used scanner to scan the leaves. A great and quick way to preserve some colors and shape. I think I am going to try this again soon!
