22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
The Emergence
Front portrait of a cicada almost out of its final moult to emerge as a fully grown adult. This was a fantastic event to observe, it's the first and only time that I've seen this, so I made sure to capture it as good as possible. In nature you never know when you will have another chance.
