[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Two really tiny snails clinging together. I thought I had lost this photo after having transferred all of my files to an external disc.
Today I found it!

Piggy-back:
One common piggyback involves the carried person sitting on the carrier's shoulders with each leg positioned on each side of the carrier's neck and dangling downwards. Alternatively the carried person is positioned lower laterally along the carrier's back, with their legs extending forward to provide balance and to possibly be supported by the carrier's arms. Another method of support for the latter method is for the carrier to stick his or her hands underneath the carried person's rear end. The latter position requires less physical strength and is safer for both persons, however by being positioned on one's shoulders the carried person's weight is evenly balanced and thus over time is less exhausting.

Hi Lurdes,

That's what you get from having to look in your files, seems like you will have enough to last you a while longer.
This is beautiful - the light is but most of all the textures of the rocky ground and on the snails.
Thanks for explaining the piggy back position - made me smile visualising it.
