long day at work :(

Macro Mondays - PATTERN

Messing around with macros and strobes. I can see now that I needed more depth of field. Next time I guess I'll drag out the big strobe.

I had this Friday off :) Spent it by the sea with my friend Karoline. Great day!

A picture I took a few years ago. Not for people with fear of hights.

I'm guessing there was some of the old resident left in there!

HBBBT Hope you all have a good day. ;0)

Empty snail shell, at wide aperture on a dull day

So I have been attempting the reverse lens technique. This is handheld and boy is that focal length tiny! This is one shot that actually turned out decently but many, many, many, many others have not. I've been keeping my 50 on the camera and reversing my old kit lens. I'm still trying to figure it out obviously! LOL... This is a little snail camped out on this plant that I still don't know the name of. I have taken pictures of it in the past (the plant not this snail).

Have a great day! :)

We drove 80km at four in the morning to shoot a beautifull bridge , de Zeelandbrug .

I Just couldn’t resist to take a Good snailphoto

The golden spiral of a Brown-lipped Snail (Cepaea nemoralis), also known as the Banded Snail!

 

This is the most colourful and variable snail in the UK. The shell may vary in colour, and in the presence of banded patterning. The shell can be yellow, pink or brown and can have up to five horizontal bands or none at all. The dark rim at the lip of the shell opening is nearly always present. The shell can reach a height of about 20 mm and a width of 25 mm. The surface of the shell is semi-glossy, and it has from 4.5 to 5.5 whorls.

 

The brown-lipped snail occupies a range of habitats including woodland, grassland, hedgerows and garden shrubs, and it is a

plant feeder on a wide range of fresh vegetation. It is common and widespread over much of Britain except in the far north of Scotland.

This snail is only about 1/2 inch across and that gives you a sense of how small the Horsetail is. Horsetails grow in wet places. Horsetail or Equisetum arvense is derived from the Latin equus, meaning "horse," and seta, "bristle."

 

An herbal remedy dating back to Greece and Rome, It has been used to stop bleeding, heal ulcers, wounds, TB and kidney problems. Today, Horsetail stems are used to mend broken bones and form collagen and as a supplement to treat and prevent osteoporosis.

 

Horsetail is a descendant of huge, tree-like plants that thrived 400 million years ago during the Paleozoic era. Dried Horsetail has silica crystals in it and has been used historically to polish metals, especially pewter.

usually I'm not that nature photographer, but sometimes i "must" use my macro lens to shoot nature things that i love.

And i think, a snail shell is a wonderful artwork by nature
