You are too far away from the subject nataliaflejszar&Photo , that's my opinion

I agree with Jack.
You need to get closer and using an aperture of f4 is limiting your dof.
My take on the composition

Thanks guys Jack and @Bill Edwards !
your opition @Bill Edwards works well too , I thought to leave the picture with the deep negative spice and minimalizm.. with the leaf that I like too on the picture.. the insect was only so small , small world althought was idea to get them closer too after them, but he just flew away after some of pictures I took of them
Thanks a lot for your composition @Bill Edwards , it's just very helpful to see more potential in my picture.. . Have you added more contrast to the insect too or it was enought in the picture?

Hi nataliaflejszar&Photo As I used only about 25% of your image, I had to reduce the noise and add sharpness.

Thanks for more details @Bill Edwards , did you used Lightroom or Photoshop for the sharpness and noice reduce?

nataliaflejszar&Photo Neither.
I usually use Topaz sharpen ai as the intelligent sharpening works well on a close crop. and denoise for reducing a lot of noise

There is no deep negative space in the image.
There is the large leaf on the left competing with the subject for the eye`s attention.

your composition is good, but if you want to keep your image as it is, the sharpness of your insect must be impeccable.

the Topaz softwer looks to be good investition , the sharpen and noice redution there could be useful for lot of situations . Which license do you have @Bill Edwards ?
