For the Macro Monday theme "Junk" (March 10th 2014)
Possibly very familiar to you - my small (but growing) collection of snail shells from the garden ;o)
After years of clearing out sheds, cupboards, wardrobes and the loft - I find myself collecting fanatically again! This time a lot of my treasured items must look like pure junk to anyone else! Dried leaves and seed pods, snail shells, feathers, bits of candles, useless and broken spectacles, and glass, mirrors and more glass! Shot with the Sony NEX-6 using the E30mm F3.5 macro lens

These beautiful giant rainforest snail shells are from our forest. They make great decorations and I have them everywhere. These are on a sundial by the poolside.

I like how this showed up the different shades of browns, tans and golds...
Last Friday Morning was really foggy and a rushed Helena out to get some pics. While we were in an alley she found a snail shell and insisted that the snail was still in there. She named the shell Flap she got upset if I called it a shell.
002/365 - Snail shell.
It was the second day of my 365 Photo Challenge. This time, I took the image very late in the evening. I thought about the shooting all day, but work kept me away from getting all the pieces together for it. Finally, it had been 22:00 when I was able to start.
Nevertheless, it was great fun to set-up the scene and to adjust the lighting and position.
The set-up required only a few items. As a light source, I used a LitraTorch, shading and directing its light with a pair of running gloves (Did not find any other things!).
The torch I fixed on a Manfrotto Single Arm 2 Section.
The rest was just tweaking the angle of light and adjusting the position of the snail shell.
Slow Worm / anguis fragilis. Homefield Wood, Buckinghamshire. 01/06/18.
Another great find whilst orchid hunting in Homefield Wood. It had been a long time since I last saw a Slow Worm, so I was very pleased!.
I think this is an adult female judging by the thin line running the length of her spine. It looks to me as though she has shed her tail sometime in the past.

Spent some time focusing on the intricate geometry of nature with this close-up study. The stark contrast between the smooth, chalky spiral of the snail shell and the rough, gritty texture of the earth made for a perfect monochrome translation in Photoshop.Trying to isolate the micro-textures and tonal shifts to create a tactile feel in a two-dimensional frame.
I'm guessing there was some of the old resident left in there!
HBBBT Hope you all have a good day. ;0)
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
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! :)
