Cicada Shell. Saw the owner, but did not have time in the evening to shoot, so got this the next day.
Several years ago planted my feet in one postition for 15 minutes trying to avoid moving the subject of a stack that was on mushy ground.
Felt a light movement on my leg and one of these cicadas was halfway up my calf. Had glasses off so it looked like a giant spider.
Got some nice images of it emerging.
