Snail Climbing Grass[edit]

Original - An image of a land snail climbing a piece of grass
Reason
It is large, high quality and quite original. Its not often that you are able to find a photo to show the foot whilst working. On the snail page, it contributes quite considerably, as it helps the reader understand the foot of the snail.

  • Reluctant oppose per depth of field issues. Otherwise fascinating! Durova284 16:55, 25 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak support The picture does illustrate the foot of the snail at work remarkably well while climbing an oddly shaped item, which seems to be the reason this picture is being nominated. Also interesting perspecitve of the snail as this is the only picture attached to the snail article that shows a working foot and the pneumostome. --Zulualpha (talk) 14:48, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
