Its a big big big... small world.(V) Είναι ένας μεγάλος μεγάλος μικρόκοσμος.(V)

Cicadas. The singers of the summer. They are everywhere. On hay-stalks, on tree branches, even on the tent over my balcony. They never stop singing. Day and night.
Τα τζιτζικια. Οι τραγουδιστες του καλοκαιριού. Τα βρίσκεις παντού. Στα χορτάρια, στα κλαδιά των δένδρων, ακόμη και στην τέντα στην βεράντα μου. Δεν σταματούν ποτέ. Τραγουδούν μέρα-νύχτα.

  4. I love them. They evoke wonderful childhood memories and, somehow, summer isn't complete without them.

  6. I've never met a cicada. I hadn't expected to be impressed by its wings.

  10. I like the sounds of cicadas but I never succeeded to take a photo of one! Interesting macros, Costas! I like the last one the most.

  11. Cicadas are such large and unattractive bugs, but they are also wonderful photo subjects and patient as well it seems.
