Hello Emmanuel:
Exact photo of this "chicharra". I apreciate your notes: it's really difficult to catch a cigale, I know by experience.
The sharpness, details and colour are pefect, but how have you get the blue backgroud. Have you shot near the animal in an open space?

Hi Emmanuel,
Superb shot, fantastic detail and excellent choice of aperture. Three things I really like about this image: The excellent detail, the way the tree blurs towards the bottom and the clear background.
Excellent shot!

Hi Emmanuel,
I wonder where you can find this beautiful Cicadas, I've never seen one in real in my life. Last year we made a trip through the jungle of Cambodia. There was such a noise of thousands of Cicadas making music - but we haven't seen only one, nothing!
So thanks a lot for sharing them with us, I like to look, thanks

Excellent result of your remarkable, very skilful slow approach technique, Emmanuel!
Details and colours are perfect - outstanding! You seem to be a master of intelligent camouflage and quick reaction, successfully hunting like a praying mantis equipped with a good camera.
Thank you! Best regards,
Peter
