The fly is excellent but the flower (clover?) looks a little busy, I think it is competing for attention, I know it can be a little frustrating at times when you get comments like that as we cannot always get them to perch where we want them to.
Hi Christopher. Another very cool fly image! Very good sharpness and all the tiny dew drops add to the image. The low shooting angle and clean background are also pluses. You might consider cropping a little from the top and left - a minor point - and subjective. Very nicely done!
