hi-
I’m not much the photographer, and I’ve been trying to find some information lately and not having much luck. This is a wonderful picture of a very cute little snail.
I’ve been looking for a way to take close-up picture such as this, and have learned that one must have a camera which will shoot macro. I think this is right. However, I don’t know what degree of macro enabled camera to get….and, is this something I can get on a more typical camera, or is this an attachment for an attachment capable camera?
I really don’t know much, but figure if you know the person who took this, maybe you would know or they would know. If possible, I need to find a camera under $300 which has capability to do good close-up shots, and normal shots also.
If you click the link above the photo it should take you the flickr page of the person (my dad) who took the photo – leave a comment asking what camera he’s using – I’m sure he’ll be more than happy to tell you! As far as I know it’s a fairly standard camera, so hopefully you should be able to find something similar within your budget..
Thanks for commenting, always nice to see new people here!

Well, I should hope so too. All cats look the same in the dark though, don’t they say. Do they say?

I have never heard that idiom. You’ve made it up.
