This is a centipede, which is not an insect as many have stated :-) You can tell its a centipede because it has two legs per segment. Centipedes can and do bite, so brave job and nice photo :-)
I like the crop. A little more DOF would have gotten another point from me, as I think both the background and centipede itself would benefit from being a little sharper. Overall, this is an interesting photo.
nice close-up work.....great detail on the insect.....I wish had been photographed on a different background without so much texture and detail of it's own....I find the background takes away from the impact of the insect
This is almost a great shot. The Bounty "Quicker Picker-Upper" paper towel kills the nature effect. I would recommend keeping a pane of glass or plexiglass around so you can deposit the insect on the glass surface and easily place it on natural surroundings - on top of leaves, dirt, etc. Wonderful focus, nice depth of field, nice colors.
This is the most disgusting bug ever. I hope never to see one in person. Good photo. Light is a bit flat, but I don't blame you for not experimenting more.
