Snails make a patient and interesting subject....especially if you are a beginner .

Nice image. Is this a crop? You could add a bit more space from the top to the bottom. Do post the EXIF details like the aperture, ISO, shutter speed to help in commenting. Thanks for sharing.

Vijay,
Your image is much better . This is Indrella ampulla, a species endemic to the south Western Ghats rainforests. Feeds on mushrooms. More info here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indrella_ampulla
It is good that you could get most of the snail in focus.
TFS.

Nice image. Colours have come out well. It is bright as well. It is good that you focused on its head. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Special thanks to Abhishek for the information on the species.

The low angle is nice. The colours look good. You could have tried with it more parallel to the sensor to get more of it in focus. Thanks for sharing. Look forward to more.
