Macro Shots: Discus Snail

I found a discus snail (Discus sp.) a few days ago. I captured this snail from several beautiful angles.

I love snails since they are cute and adorable animals. I love observing the way they creep around as if watching a slow-motion video.

The discus snail shell has a spiral pattern, which if you look closely, is somewhat similar to a gamelan gong, a traditional Javanese musical instrument.

They are very sensitive to things that are threatening. Their eye tentacles stick out long and are very elastic; this is what I like most about snails.
