Snail Shell

Whilst striping back some ivy in the garden, which was wrapping itself around several trees and bushes, I spotted a a pretty snail shell.  This gave me the idea of trying some macro, which I haven't had a go at for a very long time. 

I think I my general photography must have improved over the last year as I didn't spend much time blipping it - I seemed much more competent using my tripod and the manual exposure settings on my camera now, as well as the 'live view' mode to focus.

Well done Blipcentral - I am feeling inspired since I joined Blip, and thanks to Susan and Dave at my camera club for encouraging me to join.
