This is really nice. Directlight or pathtraced? How long did it take to render?

The mood is excellent. Very photoreal.

Thanks Jeff
surprisingly I only let it run for 2ooo samples. Directional was fine for this cause I wanted that deep shadowed look.
I'm working on an animation.

I really like this image. For the snail, you can see some tessellation on the green part, maybe subdivide it, unless this is more an alpha/texture issue?

I think this would look awesome with the new bokeh features for DOF, and run that baby longer to get the noise gone. Awesome subject matter though, I've always been a fan of snails too.
