Cicada On Ground
This member of the 2013 Magicicada Brood II flew from a tree to the ground in the parking lot of Poet's Walk (park) in Red Hook, New York, USA, where I took this image. There were quite a few active adults in the trees and the sounds, to me, sounded like what you might hear if you were operating an electric weed wacker. For this image, I used my AF Tamron Model 572D 70-300mm f4-5.6 LD lens in macro mode on my Pentax K20D camera, hand held, manually focused, focal length 300mm, ISO 400, f13, 1/90 sec, with fill-in flash from camera's built-in electronic flash. This is a full resolution Large JPEG and is Straight Out Of Camera (SOOC) and is without any post-processing, editing, adjusting, cropping, or re-sizing.
