85/365 - Snail away with me, honey

    Almost stepped on this little guy in the rain when walking home yesterday. Some people looked funny at me laying on the ground getting all wet :-)

      Haha... I can just picture you lying on the wet ground to get this! I've been known to do pretty much the same, and, it's true, the looks you get;-)
      I don't think I've ever seen a yellow snail before... thanks for sharing:)

      aiai, nydelig!
      Liker vignetten og fokusen mot snegle hodet men vil ha huset litt skarpere jeg.

      Er ikke dette egentlig et rundt hus og dermet en kadidat for uke3 i twitter challenge?

      ps.
      Opplever du noen ganger at d90'en går i lås og error kommer opp. Eneste måte er å ta ut batteriene...irriterer meg litt! (18-105vr)

      Takk & Thanks!

      @Trond: Nei, har ikke opplevd det... men nå har jeg ikke den linsa. Det jeg derimot sliter litt med er at A noen ganger låser seg og at jeg har problemer med å skifte blender. Da skrur jeg bare av og på kameraet og så funker det fint igjen. Det kan hende objektivet ditt ikke er skrudd skikkelig på om du får Error... men hvis det ikke er det så ville jeg ha fått kameraet sjekket.

      hey Gunnar... how are you man? sorry i'm slow in catching up with your work... i'll get there one day... i'm not too far behind am i? hehe

      this is awesome man! you actually got down to the ground while its raining? whew! that's dedication man! hehe i love this depth of field... i guess its a good thing you took this shot right there right then... with the wet ground... because it looks so..... (what's the word im looking for?) hmmmm........ natural...? I hope you know what i mean!

      the vignette suits it perfectly because this is such a small subject... it gives it an illusion that you're almost looking through a microscope... (again, you know what i mean!) hehe

      Perfect focus and an excellent presentation. Sometimes you have to suffer for your art :-) It almost looks like he is sliding over black jelly. Grand job.

      YAY! Im at home and i can finally fave this! :)

      ps. yeah... number 8! just checked it now... cool! i still think its just a coincidence... hehe i'm not big on Explore really... (i was before... almost got hooked into it) not anymore... I dont mean offense to those who like Explore though... :) I suppose, it adds a bit of fun to Flickr.. as long as you don't take it too seriously... you agree? (you don't have to) hehe

      thanks for letting me know though! :) Page 1 doesn't come often...

    31. Gunnar Bangsmoen (37 months ago | reply)

      Thanks all!

      @eRiz: Not too occupied with Explore, mostly just for the fun of it. I like to browse through it though...

      Very nice Gunnar. I guess I agree with the focus just on the head.
      At first I thought..how about the shell too. But, thinking about it and looking again me likey! The yellow shell is really cool.

      Fant dette (og du) da jeg søkte på snegler. Gleder meg til de kommer fram..

      Dette er bare fantastisk bra! Digger kontrasten mellom blått og gult.

      Jeg har litt problemer med at folk ser på meg når jeg tar bilder. Et ganske stort hinder, da jeg alltid ser ting jeg vil ta bilde av der hvor det er folk tilstedet : P

      Skal følge med på hva du legger ut. MYE bra å se på..
