Slow progress by the light of the moon, and a bit of help from a porch light. There were about 5 of these on the path as I stepped out of work, activating the security light just before 10pm. . . I chose the nicest looking one lol . . . Panasonic DMC-FZ7. . . Any comments welcome and appreciated.

This is one target where you don't need to say "stop, I want to shoot!" :) Good clarity and details, good shot, Lyn.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
Wow Lyn, what a fabulous macro.

Nice shot. Living in the woods, we have these guys without the shell. We call them Banana Slugs and get about the the size of one. And you really don't want to step on these guys at night. Yuck!

Never go to a doctor whose office plants have all died.
What a beautifully coloured snail and very well captured as well. If you have lots of snails you could start up Snail Racing as a sideline! lol

Sometimes you need to make chalk marks to insure they're actually moving. Nothing worse than a photo of a dead snail. Good one Lyn.

Don't they eat your garden? How could you refrain from mashing them long enough to take the picture? Well, if you had to take a picture of a snail, this is an excellent one.

He certainly is a nice looking one! And all by the light of the silvery porch. Just the right amount of greens and greys, colours and definition in this are really good. I hope he appreciated the close-up!

No trees were killed in the sending of this message. However, a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.
A little garlic butter and a mushroom button, please. You definitely made him look good enough to eat. Good job.

a bit of softer light would've been helpful.
maybe you were afraid of the snail running away while you get a softener *LOL*
good shot though ;o)

Now we know what they do when they think no one is watching - they hold snail races! Great clarity on this.

Wonderful clarity and sharpness - probably used a fast shutter speed huh? Don't want too much blur from this speedster - lol.
