Nice detail and unusual to not see a photo of one not on grass or some plant.

Excellent technical execution on the macro itself. Artistically, I might have experimented with presenting this one in a toned B/W, simply because those shades of tan in both the subject and background compete with each other. In a duotone treatment, I'm betting the finer details of the subject would really pop off the screen.
