I found this clutch of gastropod eggs in a small cleft in the underside of a rotten log I was searching for arthropod subjects. The field of view is about 5mm and it is uncropped. This is not really my king of material but its possibilities may be of interest. There is some blue fringing to the right, which I something I have not seen before.

EM--1 (manual mode), extension, reversed Schneider HM 40mm at f11, twin* TTL RC flash (one free-standing), hand-held. * Because of the recessed location of the subject, I'm not sure how much the fill flash contributed.

Thanks, Brian.

You can eat any UK adult gastropod, so I suppose so. I have sharpened the image a bit, just as you replied.

It has been suggested to me that a BW conversion would deal with the colour fringe. This is not at all something in which I have much experience but here is one of many possible conversions.

These are almost certainly eggs of the Yellow Garden Slug Limax flavus which is commonly found in our garden.
