The texture on the snail's body and shell is amazing. I don't have a big problem with the out of focus tail, but it was one of the first things I noticed.

Agreed, it looks as if it has scales, although that's not what those squares are. I guess I've never looked closely at a snail, that picture is kind of educational.
