Agreed. But maybe that was the intent. I can't identify the insect but it makes an interesting composition.
I think a vertical orientation, to get rid of some of the blank space to the left and right, along with moving the bug a little closer to center and giving it a little breathing room at top, would help.

I've got two shots of that one' the first one is focused on the blossom; the second (posted here) finds the bug. P.
Merge them in photoshop! I di that all the time; rock forward/backward to focus & knock off a bunch of shots then glue them together if desired. Honestly I didn't see the bug the first time, it looked like a leaf or something at the smaller web size. -- Paul Furman www.edgehill.net www.baynatives.com all google groups messages filtered due to spam
*Nobody* saw the bug when we were shooting (Three cameras).. I had to go back and get it again when I saw a weird green thing that *could* have been a bug in my first shot. P.
