Wake up and smell the roses

The benefits of a sunny morning after heavy rain are not only about taking close-up of snails but also the great opportunity to catch some beautiful rain drops on the petals of the roses in your garden.

Snail

About a month ago a colleague from Fedora showed me a photo of a snail, where I liked the colors but not so much the composition and framing, so I had to wait a few weeks for a "decisive moment", allowing to show my own vision of a snail photo. And it came this sunny morning, after a night with heavy rain, the perfect opportunity for the snails to take a little walk:

Update: the high resolution of the photo(s) here were lost in an unfortunate accident(human error made by be) and a bit later the only copy remaining (resized for web use, hosted on flickr) was deleted by the yahoo bastards. I am very sad about the lost content, but is out of my control. My only hope is I will be able to replace them with more and better shots.

I got the opportunity for a second snail shoot.
