Okay, so if you're going to shoot bugs, this is an excellent way to do it. Honestly, I just don't like to look at creepy crawlies up close. However, you've done this in an original, artistic way, so I find myself liking the picture in spite of the bug. Well done! Have you also tried it oriented so the insect is at the top, upright?
