Snail on a Stem Monochrome Nature Detail - Italy 2010
A delicate black and white macro photograph by Teus Renes, taken June 5, 2010, likely in Italy's Piano Grande region. The image isolates a small snail clinging to a slender plant stem. The focus on the intricate spiral pattern of the shell and the simple composition against a blurred background elevates this tiny creature into a study of natural form and texture.
