I think this is some sort of Cicada, like a locust. Whatever it is, I find it fascinating. I would like to photograph a living specimen at some point, but there is something interesting about this image, as well. I took it on July 1, 2009… I might eventually do a whole series of insect portraits. I know it’s been done several times before – by some really amazing photographers – but, I would hope that my portraits might bring a new viewpoint to the subject?
