Little too tight crop? (pixels visible) or is it bad compressing?

Hard to see what's happenning here. But it must have been hard to shoot.

It seems unfortunate the best part of the dragonfly, the intricate wings, are cropped out. The color is wild but the focus is just not there. 4

Framing is quite tight. Overall not very appealing to me personally.
