The lighting almost suggests a studio shot. That's a technical sucess!

**ToddK** · 07-20-2021, 05:41 AM

It is a very cool shot. The shell has some intricate patterns and colors.

**ProfessorBuzz** · 07-20-2021, 05:44 AM

It's as big as a watermelon! Ok... it's cool, intricate, and well lit, yet... I have no sense of scale

Their shells do have a beautiful pattern to them. I wonder who the first person was that said "you know, with a little garlic butter those things might not taste half bad."

Good shot. Intricate pattern. What do the eat in the garden?

An excellent example of something that is both damn ugly and very interesting. A textbook shot, EM.

You know, if you get ~~a case~~ a couple of cases of beer and another one of those critters, you can have races!

Australian snails--that one--has more interesting patterns than the theivin' buggers that clip off my tomato seedlings!
Thanks for a good shot to show what I've been missing.
Won't need to see any more of them, though!

Angky.
