A PULSATING cicada sheds its exoskeleton after living underground as a nymph for seven years. The cyclochila australasian, also knows as the green grocer, is a species of cicada and Australia’s most recognised and loudest insect. Taken over a period of just under two hours, Australian wildlife photographer Brad Leue caught one cicada shedding its exoskeleton atop a veranda pole. Using a tripod and torch, Brad documented the transformation in a stop motion consisting of 3,466 photographs.
