We predict a sharp crossover from nonlinear self-defocusing to discrete
self-trapping of a narrow Gaussian beam with the increase of the refractive
index contrast in a periodic photonic lattice. We demonstrate experimentally
nonlinear discrete localization of light with defocusing nonlinearity by single
site excitation in LiNbO$_3$ waveguide arrays.
