Very creative (though slightly 'evil') shot. Two minor suggestions be to get softer lighting, and a littler deeper DOF so more of the salt is in focus.

Great image. The lighting is really nice. I like the snail's shadow, and the translucency of the snail and shell, you can see it backlit. Great idea too, very creative and original.

Um, interesting, yes, but I hope the snail escaped unscathed? Is that really salt surrounding that poor snail? I'm gonna vote and pretend that that's really sugar that can do no harm to the little guy. Ok, that said, I like the stark lighting given the (I hope pretend) subject matter involved. The backlit shell is really nice, and it throws his antennae into stark relief.

Let me guess how many comments you'll get about how cruel this is. Give me a break, it's a great shot and a SNAIL. Personally, I don't care at all if the thing lived or died in the process of making this shot. I regularly purchase Snail Killer Pellets, so I'm not bothered in the least. Right now, these beasts are over-running everything in the area due to all the rain this Spring. Kill em all !
