This little fella was close to the end of life, so he was very slow. I posed him on this pretty sunflower to show him off before he "checked out". I hope you agree, that I did him justice for posterity.

I doubt a cicada ever looked better, Lucy. Lovely little vignette.

Yes I agree Lucy, 'justice for posterity' suits your 'tribute' to this little wonder of nature..
Well done

Nice capture, Lucy. The leaf in the photo brings out the green on the back of the cicada.

Beautifully set up, Lucy - you've definitely achieved your goal in my view. The composition and the bg textures are lovely and the positioning of the cicada perfect ( might like a thinner frame - but that's just personal preference !!! )
