The idea is in effects very original and nice and the realization is superb, the resultant image is colored, very beautiful and interesting, also because every single panel would have deserved a single post.
Bravo!
ciao

What an amazing composite picture, Chris, and what a collection of colors and patterns! Each individual photo is a wonderful close-up with superb clarity, but together they really pack a punch! Great colors and perfect arrangement. I love the one you chose in the center with the lady bug! Great idea, well done! Ina

Thanks for the input Petal... I went through so many versions of this lots of possiblities. You are right about the flash. I will probably fix this in a later version.
Thanks.

Super snail shots and a great combination of them!! Wonderful clarity, detail and colors in all of them... well done!!! Have a suggestion (or two) though: I would put the pics with the blue flower futher apart... and if you have another shot I would switch the top right corner image (the only flash shot...???) for to me that's the odd one out in this compilation.

Who would have thought snails could be so interesting. Some of them appear to be on the soft side, but that could be due to resizing for the collage. I would like to see one of these cropped to a pano - these would look great at 1200-1400px wide!
