Gorgeous photo, with beautiful detail. Your son's hand? Perfect contrasting color for the green of the cicada. I used this picture for an acrostic poem, by the way. I hope you don't mind.

Nice photo. I like the overall composition. The focus on the Cicada's face is good. I would have liked to seen a little more angle so we saw more of the details of the wing. It gets a little lost with the depth of field.

This is a very good presentation with great color and the hand is used to help for size comparing. Very good detail and very nice lighting. I am very happy to hear that you son is really interested in bugs. I use to teach Life Science. Thanks for the information!

Now I don't know if I would be brave enough to hold one of these bugs. I like the way you took this so close up so you see all the detail in him. This would be better with a little more contrast to really make the colors show up.
