The attack

...Ciaomau!

Excellent light and details.

un bello scatto e è diverso per te....saluti

bene Maurizio, mi piace questo scatto per te insolito, saluti Giovanni .

The poor slug doesn't have a chance.  You've ably captured the ferocity of the two beetles.

sembrano di ferro battuto, un bel lavoro, ciao Giangiorgio

Quite a scene out of an insect horror movie. I can't decide whether these are actual bugs or beautifully made miniatures. Either way, great shot.

Amazing!

I like the composition and I am very curious as Jack say too ,how and from what are this made.Unusual indeed.

Hi Maurizio, great capture and composition. The B/W processing adds to the drama for the poor snail! Did wonder if this is a piece of artwork that you have stumbled upon but great find! Best wishes. Sarah

These two flying bucks and the snail are work of a great Italian sculptor of the iron, Ivan Zanoni (you can find in Google). Their dimensions are of around 10-15 centimeters. The specialty of this artist and his father Luciano, are the trees of ulivo at natural greatness, really wonderful works. I recommend you to document you on their works. Let me know. Ciao, Maurizio.

Maurizio,is incredible there work and how beautiful,unique is.I saw profile and some of his work also a very nice presentation on youtube of father and son.The olive trees are so nice,in fact each piece is wonderful.Thank you for info. is a delight.

if someones that commented above want to see this video here is the link :

I would call this spooky. I prefer those creatures made in stone rather than alive. The image is well composed and the lighting is good.

Best regards

Bella e di successo la composizione, forse dovremmo contare che in condizioni di scarsa tecnica chiave! Penso che sia anche molto bene tecnicamente fatto!

Ciaomau

Wonderful lighting and perfect angle, Maurizio.  You have gone beyond the original work of art.
