Nik, great shot, however comment not going to be long because i have a well documented phobia of slugs and snails, cant look for long (no Joke) didnt expect to see this from the title. Cant crit cause it gives me the creeps.

Hi Bev

Yes me too butthis is a macro as you can see from the size of the gravel on the pavement. The area was shadowed by my car so not to bright to increase apature much more and so DOF was very small. I took a few shots with different settings and could not get the whole of him sharp.

Thanks for the crit though
