Nice eye contact. Maybe the leaf on the LHS could be cloned out, as it draws the eye a little!
Regards,
Paul.

I have to keep remindinding myself how tiny this fly must be good image David, looking into the world of this tiny little creature is amazing

Really like this as your eye is drawn in by the composition,great POV David

Great composition David.
I agree with Paul that the leaf on the LHS doesn't add anything to the image.
I'd lose the left leaf (sorry Shaun!). I feel the wee fly needs some 'space' to fly off into and the left bit seems a bit too claustrophobic for me. Great stuff in these little worlds!

The curve of the leaf draws your eye to the fly. I'd leave the LHS leaf in as it acts as a stop so your eye does not leave the frame.

Love the composition of the fly on the leaf and the feel to this is nice.
For me I would clone out the leaf on the left or at least make it soft as the sharp area does catch your eye.
