Links und rechts neben dem Eingangsbereich in die Stiftskirche von Melk ist jeweils eine Wendeltreppe wie diese angebaut, die die Stiftskirche mit den Trakten der Abtei verbindet. So kann man beispielsweise von der Bibliothek in die Kirche gelangen ohne nach außen gehen zu müssen. Auf mich wirkte das Stiegenhaus wie ein kunstvoll dekoriertes Schneckenhaus.
On the left and right side of the entrance area of the abbey church of Melk is attached a circular staircase like this, which connect the church with the abbey sections. So one can reach for example the church from the library without the need to go outside. To me appeared the staircase like a artful decorated snail shell.
Because of the long dry period in nature snails have a hard time. These two snails did not manage to survive and there shells fell into disrepair.
Thanks for taking time to fave, comment and look at my work. I really appreciate.

A land snail finds shelter in the side of a palm tree trunk. The hole is just big enough to squeeze into and it provides this snail with protection from the hot afternoon sun.

The snailshells look amazingly antique - just like little ammonites!
We concluded an extensive period of sunny weather (which coincided with confinement) in Denmark with some more usual freshness and even the first rain in a month. That's all it took for snails to invade the grassy grounds on the other side of the road.
A red-breasted merganser mother (Mergus serrator) and her adorable chicks, who stayed in our neighbourhood for a long time last summer.
It's nice to go through warming summer photos, on a cold and windy winter day like today.

And the second month of adjusting to living with a pandemic.
As I look back over March, which saw the beginning stages, and now April which has seen the new 'normal' emerging .... this is a maybe moment to pause and take stock. It looks increasingly likely that COVID-19 is not going to be an easy virus to adjust to, or to tame sufficiently for us to live comfortably with it. The more we learn about it, the more damaging it seems to be to us humans! The landscape of our lives is likely to be very different and for a very long time to come. Rather naively I thought of epidemics, and quarantines over our history ... but given our global interconnections, it is proving to be almost impossible to isolate and contain this virus. As soon as we start moving around, either within a country or between countries, it flares up again. It is so strange to think of the outside world as a hostile and potentially deadly place!
So life as we know it, or rather knew it, is looking increasingly remote! Visiting my photo archives, and seeing what I was doing in April in previous years just shows me how different 2020 is proving to be! I still have the garden to shoot, and very local views within the village - but the scope lies within still life work, and Photoshop, and maybe even picking up my watercolours and pastel paints again!
Once again, thanks to everyone who has visited my photostream and for the comments and faves. I hope the collage gives an enjoyable look back through the month ;o)
At a glance: At a Glance
This is the whole collection [a gift from a friend], out for an afternoon of enjoying the green moss. They were cooperative when it came to posing for pictures, I must say!
High contrast camoflage shot of a land snail sheltered on the shady side of a palm tree, waiting for sunset to reamerge and forrage.
A broken snail shell; probably eaten by a bird, hope it was tasty without some garlic butter.
Better viewed large.
Thank you for your favourites. :O)

Thanks to everyone who took the time to view, comment, and fave my photo. It’s really appreciated. 😊
Land snails have a brief window of opportunity to find something to eat after a rain shower or after gardens have been watered.
