Some words about the current picture:

P#494: Transluscent snail macro.

Sometimes it just happens like that...
You have a lot of work, and you decide to have a smoke on the terrasse... bouh it's raining...And ooooh a nice snail "snailing" on the bbq top :D
Let's have a macro photoshoot with a Canon 420Ex triggered via Cactus v2s... 98 photos later... Here's one I like.
Cheers!
Have a nice monday!

• Ho, nice picture! I love the colors. It's soft and translucent.ApoChromatic @ 2009-09-21 13:37:53
• J'aime ça! Le flou est bien placé, les détails sont croustillants (crisp... ;-)). Je ne connaissais pas le Cactus v2s... hmmm ma fête s'en vient... Keep on posting!Eric M. Savoie @ 2009-09-21 13:58:48
• @Apochromatic: Thanks
  
  @Eric: les cactus sont des ptits triggers sans fils de flash... tu trouves ça sur ebay pour vraiment pas cher, ça vaut pas des pocket wizards mais c'est pratique.Laurent @ 2009-09-21 14:16:07

• C'est beau un escargot ébloui ! Il/elle a l'air confiant/e malgré 98 coups de flash.Pierre @ 2009-09-22 11:28:27
• WHAouuuu ! Je la trouve terrible celle-là ! La semi-transparence rétro-éclairée, le détails de la texture, les petits yeux noirs et cette sensation d'être chaud sur une surface froide ... superbe !Julien @ 2009-09-22 16:09:25
• Gorgeous. The after shots subtle treatments are fantastic. The colors are lively and the depth brought out makes the image perfect. Super!mike @ 2009-09-25 21:23:15

• I've always looked at these with disgust and even in photography, have not seen one that conveys this creature in such a different light and perspective. You made something ugly to --in my view-- to witness into a work of creation's art that it is. Luis @ 2009-10-23 16:01:29
• Superbe luminosité, une photo techniquement maitrisée !test @ 2009-10-25 08:29:19

• Hi Laurent.
  
  
  
  I see you pushed out quite a lot of pictures and then went idle again. Well, better than me who have been idle for 6 months =D.
  
  
  
  I wish I had more time, family is demanding ;p As always your picture brings out the awesome light and I have a lot to learn. Keep up the good work and hope that all is well with everyone.Marcus Lenngren @ 2010-01-02 03:20:12
