Excellent close-up of a garden snail. It looks monstrous here. Very sharp.

I would have liked a tighter crop, overall nicely done.

Good idea. A bit less saturation and detail on the eyes would probably score higher though.

Good detail although the glare from the light is a bit distracting.

Pretty but needs better contrast.

Nice macro. But good to eat??? That's debatable!

Cool snail! Small suggestion---the brighter yellowish color at the top draws your eyes, and there's nothing to see up there. You might want to burn it out a tad.

So many details when you look at them up close.

Wonderful macro! Funny eyes!

Lovely macro. Nice and sharp with a soft non-destracing background. Composition is good and like how the colors look normal to me and not enhanced or over the top.

Nice DOF, great colors. Little blurry or focus is soft.

Simple and self explanatory. The bg color is nice. Not sure if you did this on purpose but you misspelled "escargot"

Snails give me the willies but you captured that little slimy guy pretty well.

I love the background - compliments the subject nicely.

The DOF is amazing and I love the greens in the background. If the focus were a bit sharper this would really pop. Escargot.

Nice shot of a not so pleasant subject - bit of a glare off of body, shell, and horns.

Lighting is a tad much, but just look at those eye stalks! Nice dof, which lends to the nice, creamy background.

Don't know why but this makes me smile. Maybe because I live where snails don't have shells. Well done.

Got any garlic butter to go with that? The flash was maybe a little strong otherwise very nice.

The flash on this is harsh and s a bit disrating, making the photo less interesting than it could be.

Nice close-up and good depth of field. I like the angle as well.

nice effort , wish there was a little more perspective to the snail. Image seems a little flat IMO. 6
