On the move. by happypat

On the move.

This slug was on his way across the garage floor this morning. I am not too keen on all the detail here but thought it was a bit different.

Three good things:
1. The start of the Ryder Cup today & in between B&B's I will be doing nothing else but watching the whole thing.
2. Only intermittent rain today.
3. I am alive & well!
I am so happy that we are celebrating your #3

Now I can't say that I am fond of this slimy fellow but I have to give it to you on textures and the sheer slime content.

Great photo. They are not very appealing, are they?
September 28th, 2012  
This is a shot with great detail, a fantastic capture. Putting the slimy-ness aside, I like it!
September 28th, 2012  
Well those are three good things especially number 3!! Nigel keeps sneaking in to watch the Ryder Cup which is why I'm on 365 - I finally have time to nip on (and I'm ignoring the ironing!).
September 28th, 2012  
Well, I have to say this is a more unique way of traveling. The detail looks great!

Great capture here Pat . He is pretty gross , but great detail to him .

Great twisty slug. Dancing slug?
September 28th, 2012  
A very twisty slug looks like he was looking at the camera for you.......so glad to hear you are alive and well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! a fabulous macro just full of slime!!
September 28th, 2012  
Rather fab...(hate bugs and slime especially) glorious colours and texture....extra points as he's doing the twist!
September 28th, 2012  
Ewww...you have captured this nasty little guy in all of his slimy glory. Excellent close up detail, Pat!
I'm loving the Ryder Cup too!

Yuck! But wonderful detail. I couldn't resist looking large and this is really a stunning shot. Well done!
September 28th, 2012  
I don't found them very appealing, but you did a wonderful job to make this slimy snail cool :-)
September 28th, 2012  
Ugg too much detail lol
September 28th, 2012  
It is yuckie but slugs are! The red bit is amazing as is his twirl! I support your 3rd idea!
September 28th, 2012  
@happypat The Americans are having a great day on the course...especially happy for my favorite player, Phil Mickelson. :)
September 28th, 2012

September 28th, 2012  
What a pose! British slugs seem to be more colorful than American. And what a contortionist! Good capture!
September 29th, 2012  
My goodness, I've never seen one do that before!
September 29th, 2012  
Great catch. You can see the slime that is so icky to step on.
September 29th, 2012  
Great capture Pat
September 29th, 2012
