Cicada

The Cicadas have started to emerge in my neck of the woods. Shot this today. The bug is resting on an old wooden fence post.

Gorgeous color and detail! The tiny water droplets are a great touch and the texture of light on the wing is beautiful.

Looks like you nailed it, Allen! Very good overall sharpness on the cicada plus nice comp, light, and background.

Very well executed. Good use of tripod here to get that sweet BG colour and tack sharp subject
