Yeah I agree with everyone here saying it doesn't fit into challenge's theme. I just entered it out of excitement ,cause this was first time i entered into any challenge and did not have a suitable photograph :) :) And it fared really bad almost at the bottom, as expected.
Nice shot of a cool looking bug. I am not sure how this fits the challenge. Maybe you are trying to say how the bug is bored and is up for anything (possibly something more exciting than sitting on this plant).
Great looking bug, maybe a bit closer and the viewpoint more in profile to get rid of the bright background above and to the left? There's potential here as a bug shot, but I'm no good at reading bug expressions so the "Bored" angle is eluding me a bit.
I don't think it meets the challenge in any way, but giving you a comment on the picture.. The bug is well captured, but I find the bright background too overwhelming and therefore distracting.
