I spy...


...a creepy crawler! I think it is a Cicada, actually. Or at least that's what my 2-year-old daughter informed me. I thought I was supposed to be the smart one in our relationship!

Many viewers may disagree with my assessment of this rather large insect as any form of art but I must say the wings alone are amazing. So thin and light yet powerful enough to lift the entire creature. And what a great contrast between the black outlines and transparent panels. Kind of reminds me of stained glass.
