NO INSECTS WERE INJURED IN THE MAKING OF THIS IMAGE
Little fella died on my wondow sill long before I took his picture.
I'd have liked to have rearranged his legs but they were very fragile, with more time I'd have moved them and probably had to glue them back on in the right places.

i really like the composition and absence of destractions. however, i keep wanting the head to be in focus. while the wings look really good, i am left wanting to see more from the body.
Voted earlier..returning for comments.
Now, this is a good comp. I like the way the subject fills the frame...but you need to close the f stop to its maximum to obtain the dof needed. Your score is for effort. Bumping from 5 to 6.
Yet another bug ... but if you've got to be a bug ... Wow! The lighting, especially of the wings, is fantastic. I don't mind the tail being out of focus, but if the head were in focus, this would get 1-2 more points from me.
