 I was playing with those snails hoping to get a decent photo for the free study challenge.
It was only during the pp that I noticed the letter B here, created by the two shells.
Now I have to find something new for the free study...

PP is pretty simple. Crop, resize, contrast, usm, border and sfw.

Way to go Jinjit.. I had given this one an 8. This was one of my fav's. I'm happy to see this great image was yours and thet it did good in the challenge. As for a ctitique.. well I would like to have seen a little more of the second snail. A little deeper DOF would have worked better for me. Great color, very crisp, wonderfull composition and fit the challenge perfectly nice job.

Great entry! The focus on the second snail fades a bit. Apart from this detail of design, this photo is a winner. Cool Shot!

Lovely letter, accidental allright, but why did you chose such a shallow DOF? If both snails were in focus this would be perfect. 9.

Very creative, and that does look like a curly B. Good job.

Nice photo , I understand the difficulty of the macro and the slighty out of focus snail.
