Was it something you would do for anybody? Was it what you'd only do for me?

Bear Creek Park

Harris County, Texas

4th photo in a series of 4.

Ils se nourissent de feuilles mortes, donc on les voit autour des arbres et arbustes feuillus. Leur taille dépassent rarement celle d'une noisette.

Ils sont hermaphrodites, mais ne peuvent se reproduire qu'en couple parce que leurs gamettes mâles n'atteignent pas la maturité en même temps que leurs gamettes femelles.

N.B. je leur ai donné une couche de verni

Taken in my garden.

I came across this rather big snail shell on the forest floor, Munich Olympic Park.

Fibonacci spiral

this is in-progress...but the first hurdle is done!

no photo-manipulation, i just used the cover of a glossy car-magazine for the shoot. found this empty snailshell in the garden this afternoon, not knowing what to do with it, when all of a sudden the idea sprung in mind.

2. hesitates...

I liked the texture and pattern, so I took a picture. The other day the internet was out and I had to be somewhere in not too long, so with a little time to kill I edited this all to hell, and now ... I dunno if I like it or not. Doesn't matter, uploading it anyway. YOU NEED TO SEE THIS SNAIL SHELL, right?

See where this picture was taken. [?]

Hanging out at my friend's house in Bedford, I realized there was a little still life on the deck in front of me.

...meiner schändlichen Tat.

Bathseba hat auch einmal versucht eine Schnecke (lebendig natürlich) zu essen, aber sie hat das widerspenstige Ding einfach nicht aus dem Haus zerren können. Naja, immerhin Geschmack hat sie bewiesen ;o)

Equisetum variegatum 'Variegated Horsetail', I don't know how the snail shell got on the tip of this Equisetum. This spot is not an area frequented by many people. Edworthy Park, Horsetail Family, Equisetaceae, 2008 27 Aug_2792acr

Old snail shell at the Edith G. Read Nature Center (Rye, New York)--March 21, 2009

Last photo in a series of 4. It's a very lively snail now.

...because I was : "to retreat into one's shell" this year.

White-lipped Banded Snail. (Cepaea hortensis) or Brown-liped Banded Sail (Cepaea nemoralis)

Snails have 4 tentacles, two small ones for feeling and smell two larger for seeing, although they have poor vision.

Snails feed by scraping a ribbon-like tongue covered in horny teeth called a radula, over their food.

Went on a walk again today and found this peculiar site. Kind of a fun find. :)

I love the beach. Sadly, I don't live near the sea. Neverthless, we have some really nice lakes in Carinthia. You may know the 'Wörthersee', but I'm mostly at the 'Kraiger See'. If you want to know how this lake looks like, take a look at this old photo from me. I think it's from 2008…

Today will be really stressful. I have so many things to do. I want to visit my photo store because my Nikon Fm has some problems with its mirror. After pushing the release button, the mirror won't flip back anymore. Does anybody had the same problem and knows how to fix that? If so, please send me a FlickrMail! Afterwards, I need to complete some things for a birthday party and when I finally finished that part, I need to go shopping :) Last but not least, some friends and I will visit Beba, who has her birthday today! So I don't know what I'm going to do today for my photo, but I'll see.
