Snails on the bicycle path. My cheap clip-on macro lens makes a cool fishbowl effect with the spiral ramp, and the spiral of the ramp echoes the spirals of the snails.

A snail facing us on an asphalt path. It has a tan spiral shell with a burgundy stripe, and a taupe body. In the background we see the spiral ramp of the bicycle path that goes up to cross over the highway. The photo is taken with a clip-on macro lens attached to my phone camera so it's a circle with dark around the edges and corners

Two snails, one moving towards us with its four antennas in clear focus. The shorter two antennas are close to the ground, and the long ones reach out to the side. This snail is two-tone brown spiral. Behind it is a yellow snail out of focus, and beyond that, we see the bicycle path spiraling up to the right.

Snails on my way to work today. Maybe on their way to work too? I helped them along to the other side.

Looking straight down at a snail on a wet asphalt path. The shell has beige and dark brown spiral stripes. The tail is yellow, and the head is brown and deeply textured.

The same snail, this time from the side at ground level. In the background we see power towers

Another snail seen from the side at ground level. This one is much more yellow beige, with only a thin dark spiral stripe

Met another fine snail during my walk yesterday.

Something endearing and relatable about watching their determined little commutes. Keeps one humble.

A cartoon illustration of a snail hiding in a closet who has dumped a shaker of salt on another snail who is now dying from the spilled salt. Caption reads "Snail crime."
