No cropping. Resized. Level adjustments. Really, pretty much just out of the camera.
My two early "shadow" thoughts about this picture. First, I love how you can't quite tell where snail ends and shadow begins -- they're part of the same entity. Second, we've all been talking this last week about how "big" things cast shadows -- you can't get much smaller than the shadows cast by imperfections in concrete.

Very nice! This is an excellent shadow... the depth of field on this photo is almost perfect also.. maybe just a touch more but it's ok as is :) I like the way the concrete texture distorts the shadow of this snail... good work! - jmsetzler
This is nice. The concrete looks hot, it would be cool if the snail was going real fast and a little blured. HA HA HA HA. I don't get paid to tell jokes.
I like snails. It was nice of this one to pose for you while you snapped it's picture. Since it is moving up and to the right, I would probably have framed it lower and maybe as a landscape view.
