Whiter Shade of Snail
A tiny snail poses on a leaf of my brightly coloured Phorium 'Jester' plant that I keep in the conservatory. I wanted the snail heading towards the camera - so using a Raynox DCR-250 mounted on my macro lens that gives a very shallow dof, I could focus on just the eyes of the snail, leaving everything else soft and blurry.
For Macro Mondays theme 'Bokeh'. The image is about 4 cm across.
No snails were harmed in the making of this photograph.
