Actually snails are hermaphrodites - all are both male and female, they mate using a "harpoon" on a cord which goes into the other snail's side through the skin - OUCH!
Both snails send the harpoons and both lay eggs. I was lucky enough to see it once in my front garden....
Love the photo, it expresses the concept in a very humourous way and funnily enough better than a true life shot of snails mating would have.

Snails... I must say I didn't expect to come across any snails in this challenge. Great composition, love those little antennae sticking out. Well done all around, and creative and unique to top it all off. One of my top picks from the challenge. Well done! :) |
