Great lighting for an interesting shot. Might be better without the insect to the left?

I'm fighting with myself here. One one hand I hate those bugs. On the other my logical mind is saying "look at the photo.. not the bugs." My irrational mind wants to just give it a 5 and move on. My logical mind says that the photo has a special something and to give it a 6.

I like the lighting and the feel of a desert at sunset. The focus and DOF are nice. ...but man I hate those things! 6.. moving on!

Lighting is really great here! I wish it was just the one bug though.
