All C+C welcomed, but particularly relating to the position of the subject within the frame and, as ever, the post processing since I have trouble with colours in particular.
Up to your usual high standard in terms of macro technique.
Re processing and position; the image looks a little flat so maybe more contrast and/or a slight reduction in exposure; I've cropped the image using the web-browser pane an it gets stronger if the subject sits to the right and you lose canvas on the right too - you'd have to add some to the left (if you have it) for balance.
It seems impossible to me that those wings will ever be any use. I also think it could stand a little more contrast to emphasise the huge amount of detail you have captured, but I am not so sure about the comp, I quite like that as it is. eric

Lovely find and some smashing detail, and every thing looks ok to me.
