With typhoon Mina within the Philippine Area of Responsibility bringing rain the past few days I took some Macro pictures of a centipede, snail, and oyster that I was about to eat. It was fun especially the oysters.

nice, kuya ely! they are creepy but they look good in photos. Thank you Mark. They are very small and easy to handle. What you should avoid are the hairy ones. If uncertain don't touch with your hands. Caterpillars especially the fat green ones are cold to the touch and rubbery. They are beautiful to photograph but did not see any because of the rains.

One way of testing them is by smelling them and if they don't smell good throw them away immediately. Don't take the chance of getting a bum stomach. The best one are the expurgated oysters that are seldom sold here. They would leave them for a couple of weeks in a cage on the open seas that will clean out the impurities in the oyster. Are the bird flocks still coming in BK?

I love the third picture... Thank you "Hanalwala" if that is your name. The snail is actually very small. Someday I will take a picture of the big one which is very common but I hardly see them now.
