whoa that's an incredible photo.

[–]farfaraway[S] 2 points3 points ago

ya, i thought so too :)

[–]Bulwersator 3 points4 points ago

source?

[–]farfaraway[S] 1 point2 points ago

unfortunately, don't have one. I looked via google images to try and find it, but couldn't.

I found it on a friend's facebook feed and it was unsourced.

[–]Cormasaurus 7 points8 points ago

This was just posted nine days ago.

With a source.

Please remember that pretty much everything you see on your Facebook feed has been posted somewhere on Reddit, 4chan, or some other similar site.

[–]farfaraway[S] 1 point2 points ago

Thanks for posting that :)

Glad to see a source. Lots of other really great photos on the photographer's site.

[–]toaf -1 points0 points ago

Good job finding the source, but I don't think you needed to remind OP of anything. From what he said it's apparent that he was already mindful of that.

[–]Cormasaurus 0 points1 point ago

So, he was mindful of it, but he reposted it anyway, a little over a week after the last one. Okay.

[–]DMitri221 -1 points0 points ago

Glad he reposted, since it's the first time I saw it. Stop being a douche. Better yet, stop being retarded; if everyone already saw it this wouldn't have upvotes.

Here

Edit: looks like it's from the same photographer, but the mushroom is wrong in my link..

Edit 2: Looks like this image is pretty common on the Internet

[–]sevenwordsting 2 points3 points ago

this is an awesome picture, but how set up is it?

[–]Forscyvus -2 points-1 points ago

The water drop looks incredibly shooped.

Alice?

[–]And_Rasta 0 points1 point ago

How lovely!

[–]Dangerous_Theory -1 points0 points ago

I wouldn't call it perfect timing, since the snail wasn't about to go anywhere in a hurry, and you can easily create the droplet. Cool photo though

[–]bobdelany 1 point2 points ago

It's my first time in this subreddit and I've found lots of pictures of people jumping into water, getting sprayed with water, popping bubbles, watching fireworks, jumping into water, diving into water, flipping into water, water...

but this is truly spectacular.
