Just too much work right now, but please know that Brad and I are on the site everyday even though we dont appear to be active much is going on in the background. I am catching up with my comments slowly and thought this ugly fellow would be suited to accentuate that point. I didnt quite get enough DOF but I love the detail on his shell and how he seems to look straight at the camera. Well he does with one eye anyway. Ive about 3 very busy weekends ahead but hopefully then I can get shooting again. Once again thanks for reading my waffle Kind regards Helen · Date: Thu January 28, 2010 · Views: 490 · Additional Info Keywords: snail slowly catching up Camera Make / Model: canon EOS 400D Lens Make / Model: Canon 60mm F2,8 Filters /Type Used: n/a Flash / Type Used: n/a Event e.g. Grand Prix, Birthday, Sunrise: Garden shot State / County / Area Image Taken: Daventry Country Image Taken United Kingdom Processing Software Applications Used Photofiltre Studio « more · more »

Speedy Gonzalez so to speak. Good textural sense from the shell and the skin of the snail. Do these creatures have four eyes?

The dof looks good enough to me! You wonder how they can balance such big homes on their backs. Looks about to topple over! At least you're busy the coldest part of the year. Hopefully weather will be improving three weeks from now. Mick Registered: January 2009 Posts: 1,608 Fri January 29, 2010 8:14am Now this is some action shot Helen .. the panning is superb as is the motion blur Nice to see one of your posts again and this is a very detailed macro capture with an excellent DOF Julie Registered: February 2009 Posts: 1,421 Fri January 29, 2010 11:13am Gorgeous color and detail on this. Well done. Shimshams Registered: April 2009 Posts: 948 Fri January 29, 2010 11:51am Great colour, DOF spot on for me very sharp, lovely textures on shell and body. Great subject but my better half hates these things in the garden. best wishes Rob lrw1966 Registered: November 2008 Posts: 3,889 Fri January 29, 2010 2:39pm Helen, Hi: Marvelous action composition with wonderful colors, textures and details. Hope all is well with you and Brad and appreicate all the time you give to all of us on the site. Very Nicely Done Larry Nancy Registered: December 2009 Posts: 147 Fri January 29, 2010 4:05pm When I lived in PA, and after a rain, we would find these slimy little creatures all over the sidewalks etc., and had to be avoided with each step. I like that there is room in the f/g for presumed forward movement. Paul Registered: October 2009 Posts: 876 Sun January 31, 2010 6:43pm Enough DOF to provide plenty of detail. Been busy too and will be on holiday 7-14 February but will try to post a little more.
