Hello 👋 Nikos,
Beautiful background 😊 ; perfect 👌 for such insect. Good details and colors.
In my humble opinion, composition doesn't look good. You left too much BLANK SPACE (hind portion). Very little space in front of the fly. A tight crop or giving space in front of the bird 🐦 could have been a better choice ☺. Tomorrow I'll show you a workshop.
Thanks for sharing your work with us 😊
Regards,
Srikumar
