This tiny snail (when retracted) is just about the size of one of those pomegranate seeds. However, he is lively and I finally had to put the camera on shutter priority to 'stop' motion on him.

Thanks, Ken. Here's a changed copy. MUCH better.

I actually rather like the darkness of this, as opposed to the brightened version.

Hard to get a sense of the scale but it's a nice capture. A little dark/underexposed - RAW? (the image format, I mean - not the snail) - you could boost the exposure.
