| About |
My 3 Cicada posts today are dedicated to my fellow Marylander, the amazing Dan Lightner. Dan has inspired me with his incredible nature photos including two wonderful images of our beloved 17-year Cicadas.
This year's brood is now out and about, but not yet flying very much. Once they emerge and morph from their nymph stage, it takes a while for their wings to dry out. In the meantime, they can barely fly.
They are very docile and completely harmless. In their current state, waiting for their wings to dry, they are easy to persuade to hang around for a photo session.
This one is actually the first one I found today - he was in the shrubs out in back of the business park where I work. I posed him on the windshield of a handy blue Mustang. Doesn't he look sporty!
Actual exposure information: f/6.3 @ 1/400 sec.
