'Similarity'
This photograph depicts a wooden surface with a snail on it. Maybe they are slow but I love them for their beauty. The perfection of lines. Did you know they have the perfect golden ratio in those lines? The similarity of patterns both on the surface and on the snail made it interesting. Notice the curved lines on the snail's house and their counterpart on the wooden surface. It is amazing to see nature creating the wonders we can witness all around us.
The small orange accent beautifully balances the rest of the image and leads the sight toward it. After seeing it, the eye continues following the curved line to the top of the snail. Notice that the photograph is done in the hi-key. It is the overall whiteness that envelops the snail, giving it a soft look and a dominant portion of attention. It also renders colours of the background weak and adds to the mood.
The shallow depth of field strongly points out the snail. This technique is often used in motion pictures. It helps cinematographers achieve a certain feeling or mood that scenario demands.
Enjoy! :)

wow, very beautiful photo @velimir, I like your way of taking the picture, so that your photo looks very good, I really salute to people who have soul art, because the soul of art is not owned by everyone, and art has a very high price. Thanks for sharing, and wish you a wonderful day... :)
I love how the colors of the snail match the brick wall. Art can be found everywhere even in the simple scenes of life.
The snails are beautiful. They are the oldest inhabitants of our planet. They live in different conditions both on land and on land. Even when people start to change their environment, the snail's natural habitat quickly adapts to it. They are much smarter than we can imagine. Imagine that their brains are divided into four parts. They can even make decisions based on their life experience. It is amazing. After all, people can not imagine that these "slow" creatures are so clever. Nevertheless, I like their way of life. They are slow and do not hurry, they just live. It's great!
My sister has African snails. They have an impressive size. But they are just as beautiful. I know that such snails are often used in beauty parlors. They are planted right on your face and snails creep. They crawl over your face and leave a lot of useful substances that are in their mucus. This is an unusual but useful procedure that costs money.
I liked how you focused on the snail. This snail really looks interesting and attracts attention. It's amazing to watch things and creatures that you did not pay attention to before!
Thank you!
"Although slowly walking, but still willing to walk."
The snail is indeed destined to be able to walk with it just like that, so slow even if only to move a few centis. But look, the snail is still willing to walk. He kept gradually crawling with his body. In contrast to other animals that can move quickly. That's how a snail he keeps running in his own way and his own ability.
"The weight of the shell is not a burden to be regretted, but it is something that is very protective."
The snails are already slow, still have a heavy shell. Almost all parts of his body covered by shell. But just observe then we have actually realized something special. The shell is not a burden to the slug, so he will not walk. It is precisely the shell that protects it from various other animals who want to eat it.
"Often said to be disgusted by the mucus, but it is beneficial for wound healing."
The snail is often considered a disgusting animal. Animals are slimy and make ourselves uncomfortable to hold it. But behind its nature like that, snails are animals that are often used by humans to heal wounds. That's because the mucus that is in the snail's body is able to eradicate many bacteria and help in the closure of the wound. Until not infrequently people still use it as an alternative way of first aid when the body is injured.
this is a really very talented art of snail.atthe first time i see this art.its very different kinds of art or any other person.because your knowledge skills always perfect and real.. just excellent shots photography of art.

Interesting to see the start of a process.
Seldom am I brave enough to show works in progress. Why is that? Because more often than not, I totally screw it up, then it sits in a pile of unfinished stuff. If I don't screw it up, then I do have progress shots saved that I can present with the finished piece. Working on a piece right now, where maybe I could publish the very detailed charcoal under(drawing)painting, which I subsequently screwed up with the first layer of paint. But I am doggedly still working on it. The drawing does not exist in original anymore, of course, but I got a good photo of it, so I could publish and make prints.
Bottom line: I am never confident that it will work out in the end. But that has to do with my process also: I am constantly experimenting - like a little kid with a chemistry set. The difference is, experimenting with painting, you at least don't risk blowing up your house!
@velimir
I do not know why but I am tilting my head to look at it. Seems more natural to me to see it from than angle :D
Wow!
Fantastic capture.
I was absent 2 or 3 days but now I'm back will comment on your post regularly as i was doing before.
you know what you are one of my favorite authors on this amazing platform.
I really can't believe snail and surface are two separate things, They are looking same and their design is matching perfectly.
Have a good day.
hmmm... good one
Amazing look .
Specially i am inspire by those curved lines . they look amazing . the whole photo look amazing very interesting combination of colors . and that golden shade on snail home and background .
Inspiring photography .
Slugs that have chameleon properties, such as creeping animals (lizards)@velimir
Wow, it's imperesting! I love the passion you put in each photograph and how you want to highlight nature with those beautiful colors. I loved wel snail, it looks perfect.
Nice, I have also noticed that snails are beautiful and colourful. The photo was well taken. Thanks for sharing another wonderful post I really enjoyed it @velimir
Haha! How stupid of me! I thought it was an alien spaceship or some kind of UFO that's why I clicked it right away without reading the title! You got me there @velimir good job!
Such a cool shot. I love how you have been able to make the snail the focal point and everything else is blurred into the background. This is a strategy we will be working on in our photography unit. You have given me another great picture to show. We got started yesterday with setting up our Shutterfly accounts where they will be dropping their photos for me.
Amazing photography!!!
Amazing photography looks like a real artist
Very nice photo @velimir
Hola @velimir
Los colores que ha quedado plasmados en esta bella fotografía son tan variados que parecen un pantone.
La luz es tan viva que alegra la vista y la sensación es fabulosa.
Excelente trabajo y Muchas Gracias.
excellent capture! #nature #snail #life
your content its very intersting friend
💘
This one I took when I was on a hike.
Where was the picture taken?
wow, very beautiful photo @velimir, really the colors look very vivid.
Thanks for sharing another wonderful post, I really enjoyed it.
An honor can read your post @velimir A view with real life how to learn from a snail.
have we ever seen how a snail's life?
Snails are a fascinating beast that life snails become a very meaningful outlook to be yourself, to be great in this life. The magic that the snail possesses is the confidence of giving a force that is capable of defeating this journey of life,
Do you believe in what we have today?
the person who does not believe in the ability possessed is the most failed person in his life. This is a view that we can take from the slug that confidence is very important, because the very important thing in this life when life is run with confidence will give birth a strength great in life. And the line of life has been written on our own hands and the golden ink is only in us we will write in this real life.
conclusion
Miracles will come to human life with a belief.
we win together
See You on the top

From a snail you take this great thought, also the background gives an intriguing and interesting because it makes think of the interesting things that can be taken to anything and can be demonstrated naturally with a text, greetings.
@calitoo
What an outstanding photography i must say.i am fully astonished
When I was a child I use to have a pet snail, I had it for several years, snails are asexual which I didn’t know at the time and one day it just started having babies. I let them go the.
