Close up Photography for 30 Days Wild

I noticed this lovely snail on a wall as we walked along Corstorphine Road after we had walked round Corstorphine Hill this morning.

I'm very pleased with how the photo turned out, it shows the spiral pattern of the shell very nicely and I like the contrast between the shell and the rough wall.

I don't know what species of snail it is, but sometimes all you need to do is enjoy the beauty of nature without worrying about being able to give everything names. (Though identification is really important and recording wildlife is vital for conservation work).

A beautiful snail, a beautiful photo! As you say, it's so good to be able to stop and absorb the natural beauty around us.
