A very curios image. It definitely caught my eye.

@blueberry1222 Thanks for watching, Krista!

A racing snail - and you captured it just before it slipped out of focus. Nice one.

[Domenico Dodaro]

@vignouse I was slower in focusing with the handheld macro lens at dusk than she in moving... Thank you!

[Margo Sayer]

Super shot!

[Domenico Dodaro]

@s4sayer thank you!

[Caroline]

This is lovely in so many ways Domenico... I have a thing for snails, but your focus on the shell is so fantastic (and the upper tentacles so faint - just amazing!)...

[Domenico Dodaro]

@kerosene Thank you Caroline, too kind of you!

[Lin Joyce]

Great shot, Domenico!

[Domenico Dodaro]

@linjoyce thank you, Lin!

[Chris Johnson]

Awesome high-key capture on this cool looking snail!

[Domenico Dodaro]

@cjphoto Thank you Chris!

[Richard Sayer]

Just a quick word of encouragement... you're having a dry spell - post something, anything will do, until you have the time and the inclination to move forward again. Hold off commenting and use the time for yourself. A lot of people on here would be sad not to see any new Domenico images :-((

[Domenico Dodaro]

@vignouse Thank you so much, Richard, I've been just so taken with work I barely had time to keep up with @fiveplustwo and with giving a quick look to other photographers' pictures. That are a source of inspiration and in the last 15 days, a reason of envy! I will, I promise: expect your feed being spammed in the next 48 hours with a ton of catch-up uploads! Thank you again, indeed, you don't imagine how much I appreciate your note!

[Jocasta]

This is where a snail becomes Fine Art - wonderful in black and white and a big FAV - don't stop posting - love your photography

[Domenico Dodaro]

@jocasta Thank you so much, also for your words of encouragement! Won't stop, I promise!
