 Found this little guy hanging out by these steps I take to get around. I liked the way he was hanging on it as if wonding how to get across. I ended up leaving him but upon my return I found him in the ditch in his shell, I picked him up and moved him to one of the sides...hope that is where he was going.

Can't shoot raw right now since I have really no way to convert them so this was shot basic with adjustments to exposure, saturation, sharpeness and resize. This may have also been rotated slightly but can't remember

This is one tricky photo...I must say I almoust voted on it like blured which depending on subject is 1-2. Only at last moment I noticed your idea and had to return to change my vote. Sill I think you could have improved your composition. I would keep just half of gutter and maybe more space on right side, to emphasize your object. Or to capture snail in front but from lower level and seeing gutter behind the snail. I wish you good luck, the challenge is to see the snail. Maybe should have gave hint in title.

Good leading line, but too out of focus for me.

great scenery, but the DOF - whole composition would have benefited if the accent was on the lines according to contest, not the leaf which is distracting.
