Cicada- just emerged from its nymphal skin

The wings on this insect will soon turn clear. They remain this brilliant green for only a short time after it emerges from its nymphal case which you can see it is still clinging to.

Fantastic. The wings looks electric. I just love macros and yours are some of the best I've seen. Excellent. Vote :)

Fantastic shot. We can always hear the sounds of the cicadas in the summer, but I have never ever seen one. V

Odd looking insect. Great shot of the cicada. I don't think they live in my part of the world. v
