Beautiful, perfect for Spirals in Natura mission too!
i agreed Emma defenitly(?)is a helix aspersa :) i make the respectiv changes,thanks for the id
This snail looks very pretty.Even though the shell has green in it compared to our
garden snail, I still feel it is Helix Aspera.
@thanks Emma,it's dificult to describe,but as yellow pale,dark and ligth brown's,black and the mud green that is caracteristic in the snail's i spott arround here.i hope this can help till your monitor is good :)
@Alice geometrie in nature is fascinating,i'am allways finding great designs and patterns in wild organisms,nature invented almost every form and colour and texture,it's amazing,i'am glad you like it to :) thanks for the comment
@Thanks Arlanda,i have allways in mind the life and mathematics missions,one of my prefereds :)
Beautiful Snail, Antonio!!Looks like Helix Aspera? My monitor is not working / The colors are all distorted . Till I fix it, i have to guess!
Talk about geometric design - so beautiful!
