  • Comment the shells appear blurry in places but I can't tell if that's because the camera is OOF or if this is because the patterns on the shells are smudgy. --Pine 08:01, 11 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Re to Pine: I think it's both. The texture definitely looks a bit creamy and naturally smeared. However, if you look closely there is noticeable OOF, but it goes away at 3000px. -- King of ♠ 10:51, 11 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support per KoH. I think Llez usually contribute his works as it is without any down-sampling (here 36MP). But the image good in a reasonable resolution for most uses. Jkadavoor (talk) 07:13, 12 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support, nice pattern, but it's sad to see an empty shell without snail (EV would be higher otherwise). Brandmeistertalk 11:42, 12 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support: Looks great, clear, non-distracting. You know, it makes me wish I had one of them to play with. It's so neon... Thekillerpenguin (talk) 06:07, 14 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
