This is great, Balan. I like the contrasting purple and green colors, and the comp/perspective. Very good job isolating the subject against the nice bg.

That's one crazy looking bug. Did you try this as a vertical with the top of the inflorescence included in the image?

What a strange looking critter. Nice details of the fly and perch with a great blurred background. Vertical would have worked well for this type of image too.
