Comes from the Macro Challenge November 2002 by Angel . The original picture if very vague but I felt with some creativity it looked like a pair of big eyes like this fly's.

First Impression: A nice macro with good focus on the eyes. I like that you can still see a bit of detail on the legs. Nice lines with the branch and legs to fill out the photo, but I feel like the wings should be spread out on either side of the head... guess it was just the angle you took this at.
Looking Closer: The contrast is good here, and you definitely have a full range of black to white in the head, but the rest of the photo seems to lack... something as far as the tones. Looking at the photo you were copying, I can vaguely see the connection but it also seems a bit of a stretch. I don't know if adding the ID number of the copied photo in your title would have helped, or hurt. It certainly took a creative eye to find something within that photo to replicate!
