...slowly, but sure

This. Says a lot surprisingly for how simple it looks. So many concepts can be obtained from this and quite honestly I'd see this hanging in offices everywhere. (Right alongside those cheesy "Keep it together team!" posters). Luckily this is far far more unique than a sailboat on a lake.

The lighting is quite bright, as I've noticed is common in this photographers repertoire, but it suits this piece well. The minute details on the shell of the snail pop very well, as well as the individual spines on the cacti.

It honestly makes me feel sort of bad for liking Escargot considering how determined this little one is.

The bright greens contrasting with the smooth pastels with background are fantastic, along with the blues and browns. All complement each other by making each particular element unique in the composition.

The placement of the items works well making the eye draw in a very nice curve from the snail to the cacti.

Very well done.
