Cicada Shell by Kenneth Taylor

About the Image(s)

This image of a cicada exoskeleton was taken while out doing landscape photos. I used a minimum amount of color enhancement so as not to take it too far off the original image appearance. I tried blurring the foliage to allow focusing on the cicada, any ideas will be appreciated

Hi Kenneth,
I am not that knowledgeable about the Cicada and its Exoskeleton.
My only concern is that ideally the entire Cicada with its Exoskeleton could be in super sharp focus. It might be the kind of subject that would benefit from the use of a macro lens employing "focus stacking" . . . multiple photos each at very slight differences in focus distance. I would also think that a very sturdy tripod would be required as well.
Best,
