| WOW, excellent image. I love the DOF. And I love how someone is still using the Canon 10D. That was my first Digital SLR and its a workhorse! Nice Shot with a nice camera. |

| Oh yes, I do like this. Yes, I know it's a set up of three unrelated snails but I don't care one bit - it's so Alice in Wonderland! I love quirky! Plus I am a sucker for extremely shallow DOF and high contrast black and white! So you have it all really! Top shot! |

| The snails are wonderful, but I'm not sure about the very large out of focus area in the foreground. You might want to consider cropping about halfway up to the snails. |
|
| Photographer found comment helpful. |
|
|
01/13/2007 10:04:31 PM |
Excellent image. I would have liked much deeper DOF. Maybe a different crop could show less of the foreground. Good job though!

| I love your sense of humor. Your conversion to B&W is excellent. DOF a little shallow for me in front - the blurriness distracts me. But your willingness to think outside the box really enthralls me. |

| This is such a fun shot and a real challenge with the DOF. I suspect that the rushed pace of the subjects made a smaller aperature an impossibility. ;-) Just funnin! Great shot and I hope it does well for you. |
