Description Actually she's not yawning of course, I just lured her to open the mouth by holding delicious banana in front of her.

Holding a banana in front of her (wait, aren't they like male and female in one? )? That's cute, I'll try it someday.

What does the banana have to do with it's gender?
But yeah, you really have to try it, it's awesome. Never seen a snail that active.

It doesn't have anything to do with it's gender. Forget it. And about that activity - what else to expect? In the end, it's the food we are talking about.

Whoa, this is a really neat shot! It really captures those fine details most people can't see on a snail.

I never knew a snail could be adorable. Actually, if i'm honest, I've never considered a snail having a mouth at all. I'm not sure why.

Anyway, great shot. I love the timing and the depth of field.

Thank you so much.

Actually I never considered a snail to be a good "object" for photos, but on that day I was walking through that forest near my house and she was sitting right in the middle of the path. So I was like: I should put her beside the "road" so noone steps onto her.

And when I kneeled in front of her I realized that she somehow really looks cute.

Haha, whatever~

You're welcome!

I know! You would never think of a 'cute' snail.
