Interesting creature. DOF is too shallow and your picture is too small - it can be up to 640 pixels on the long side.

This is definitely a challenge. You did well to get this close. More DOF would probably give it more impact. Only the side of the bug closest to the camera is in focus. One tip that a few 'professional' photographers have given me is to focus on the eye(s). In this case the eye is slightly behind the area in focus.

For composition more room on the right would give this critter space to move into.

What are you? either your dof is too deep or you are out of focus a little? It almost look like both are present here. Good try on the close up. I would have also like to see the whole bug if possible. 4
