[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Red Hot Poker plants [Kniphofia] are very attractive to these molluscs.

They climb all the way up the stems to the flowers, and presumably find something nourishing to feed on there.

Hi Peter, good macro, you have captured the detail and colour perfectly. :)

hello Peter,
I like this macro. I like the snails that you have captured in all their shiny hard and slimy soft detail but i also like the bg of softly focused kniphofia heads. I'm a fan of these and other big garden perennials and you could say that like the snail, I am a bit of a sucker for them.
regards
Bev

Good macro, nice details on the snails. The background is a bit too saturated in my oppinion.
