A common garden snail found in my back yard.

back yard, Western Australia
Canon EOS 350D, 100mm f/2.8 macro @100mm, 1/100 sec, f/8, ISO200

The colour version of this photo wasn't all that exciting, but I found a duotone conversion with boosted contrast and slight vignetting makes it much more interesting!

I was hoping to take some closeups of a snail in action, but this guy refused to show his face...so I settled for some photos of the shell instead.
