EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot by John Cancalosi, we are transported to the enchanting realm of Costa Rica's lush rainforests. Behold, a recently emerged adult Emerald Cicada takes center stage, proudly displaying its vibrant exoskeleton! This incredible creature showcases Mother Nature's artistic prowess with its iridescent green hues that shimmer like precious gemstones. Perched upon a majestic tree trunk, our little protagonist seems to have just stepped out from a fairytale. Its delicate wings and intricate patterns resemble an ethereal tapestry woven by unseen hands. As if frozen in time, we witness the moment when this magnificent insect sheds its old skin—a true metamorphosis in action! The close-up view reveals every minute detail: the rough texture of the bark against which our emerald friend stands tall; tiny skeletal remnants left behind as evidence of transformation completed. It is a testament to resilience and adaptation found within even the tiniest inhabitants of Central America's biodiverse wonderland. John Cancalosi has masterfully captured this fleeting spectacle for us all to marvel at. So let your imagination take flight alongside this breathtaking butterfly as it dances amidst nature's symphony—where beauty meets science and art intertwines with life itself!
