25. Snails Go west ! Funny TimeLapse
1 year ago
(Together) We will go our way
(Together) We will leave someday
(Together) Your hand in my hands
(Together) We will make our plans

(Together) We will fly so high
(Together) Tell all our friends goodbye
(Together) We will start life new
(Together) This is what we'll do...



Every evening, after my automatic water system stops, all the snails who where hidden behind flowers go out and go on the grass to make parties, eating and drinking ! They moves from east to west :)

I think the "Go West" music from Village People is correct for the life of Snails...

    I really like seeing the snail-trails evaporate. Very cool!

    Cool! I wonder if the snail-brain runs slower than ours and if they think they move fast...

    Very nice! The great snail migration!

    The only improvement would be some garlic and butter... ;-)

    Very effective. makes you realize that they are just living their lives slower than we are. Oh and did any one mention "Go west" is by the Pet shop boys, not that it detracts from the movie.
  • www.time-lapse.fr 8 months ago
    Ok apologize for the Pet Shop Boys !

    Great time lapse. As Joel is half right. The Village People did the original go west, but the version in the video is by the Pet Shop Boys.

    I made same kind of shot (with realy less snails) few weeks ago : vimeo.com/5341879

    I first thought snails were going where green grass was... but looking at your video, I know realize they were actually going West !

    And the winner, for best snail in a documentary film, goes to.... Snail #2!!!

    Accepting the award for Snail #2 is Snail #4, since Snail #2's unfortunate accident with a shoe.
