Cicada madness | Southern Maryland photographer

This post may have a yuck factor. My 6yr. old looked at the screen and wanted to know why I took such scary pictures. I am just as fascinated as I am grossed out by these little guys. So I spent 4 hours photographing these buggers today. Oh how I love to shoot out doors in my PJ's!! I happened to catch one not out of it's shell yet. So I photographed the progression. There were 2 of them I watched today, but only 1 I got to see from the start. Watch this slide show to see the progression for yourself. As you watch look at the eyes, it was looking right at me every time! Go ahead push play, you know you want to!! Oh yeah, hover over each one to see the time it was taken. Enjoy the show...
