I actually like #1 and #2 and am always a believer in leaving shots as they were originally taken and maybe just rotate one to see how it looks.

The slug has a very innocent, delicate look about it - who would want to use slug pellets on this lol.

I agree with Linda, if you rotate an upside down shot it still doesn't seem to look right to me, better left as they are. ~1 and 2 look to be the best for me also.

All I usually see of these are the trails they leave behind. Good shots Bill.

Hmmm... You've never had the childhood pleasure of pouring salt on slugs then?

It makes them dehydrate, almost explosively...
