Interesting use of noise in the background. I think it adds nice texture. What hurts this shot themost is the big green stem in the background cutting right through your subject. Unavoidable, I am sure, but it add clutter to an otherwise awesome shot!
there's a real comic-book feel to this, not just from the overtly contrasty style but I get an intense feeling of urgency and danger. It's like, she's lighted on the blade of grass for just an instance to get her bearings before continuing on with her perilous flight. There is danger all around.
Ok so unlike most insect closeups, I get a nice story from this one, so high marks from me 8 )
