. . . . . . . . .

I play golf again last week, and observed this snail . .
As usual, I bring camera with my loved one - 105 mm macro lens . .

It's kind of racing with those ants . .

Crops slightly, increase contrast, add frame and resize . .

Thank you for viewing it . .

Cheers,
Tjutjut

Hahaha Tjutjut,

No need to bring your freezer to the Golf course this time then!

Excellent diagonal, perfect DOF and all-in-all attractive shot.

Hi Tjutjut,

Great macro, but maybe you could use a bigger aperture, I think that speed must not be a probleme here.
Best regards,
Olivier

Hi Tjutjut,
Although a bit dark, it is a nice close up of this snail, I'm impressed by the shutterspeed you used (1/200) was he that fast? :-)

Hi Tjutjut

Lol at the title. At least you do not have to worry about motion blur. Good macro zoom shot of the snail, with excellent dof & sharpness. Tfs!

Hello Tjutjut


Beautiful macro shot!
Congratulations, I am amazed with the beauty
colors and details of this post!
Greetings!

Hi Tjut,

clarity yang cukup bagus sehingga kelihatan detail tekstur.

Tapi saya masih kagum dengan lighting control sehingga tidak ada bias cahaya pada kulit keong ini.


well done
Regards
Agoes

Hello Tjutjut...
Racing? Saya rasa saya berminat dengan titlenya. :))

Seperti bilangnya si Agoes, control cahaya memang cukup bernas. Expose yang sangat baik untuk persembahan detail pada tekstur yang sangat menarik.

Salam hormat,
Ramdan.

Hello Tjutjut,
Excellent capture and great macro.
Lovely colours, beautiful framed.
Well done my friend..TFS.

Hello Tjutjut,

What an amusing title!
I really enjoyed your humour here!

His eyes are on the ends of his antennae so he is taking a very good look at his competitors!

A well chosen pov to get the front of the snail in focus. The narrow dof works well .

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Many thanks for your warm comments on 'Abstract symmetry - a pansy face'.

Nice race!!! good exposition:)

Hi Tjutjut,
garden snails...I have a confession to make. I squashed some because they ate my 'surviving' plants in the garden. I try not to use pesticides because my little ones like to be in the garden. How the tentacles move always send shivers on my neck...
Anyway,superb macro. The details are excellent! Well done.

Best regards,
Sharina

you bring out all the details and yet the lighting look so soft here. impressive macro, Tjutjut

Hello my dear Tjutjut :)

Excellent macro on this cute snail ;) Nice details and colours, good job !
In France we love to eat snails with butter and garlic ... English people called us the 'snail-eaters' :)

Hi Tjutjut, This is a good macro with good light and clarity. Good to hear you take the camera to the golf course also. Enjoy your work. TFS. Murray.

Hello Tjutjut!
Sorry reminds me of that old fable the tortoise and the hare,
maybe this one should be the snail and the ant? who would win?
I like your close up, neat shot! TFS
