Snail

[Bilbo_baggin]

Here is a garden snail, traversing a fallen leaf. I was trying to get the face-on view but the DoF just wouldn't play ball. Then at the last moment (albeit a fairly slow last moment) the snail decided to have a look over to the side and gave me this nice side-of-the-head pose.

C&C as always encouraged.
