 ok so it didn't hit the challenge topic 100% let me explain what I was thinking...

To me this bug (I have no idea what it is) looked very proud on top of the flower, and I was really proud of this macro so desided to enter it.

Thanks everyone for top 20 :o

Nice bokeh, excellent macro. Not sure that it convays the challenge topic strongly enough for me. Still a wicked cool macro though. As is 6, stronger connection to the topic would put it at a 9. Awesome shot.

The macro is good and thedetail is ok, but it just doesn't wow me for some reason. The blurred plant being in the foreground is distracting. Maybe a darker background would have showcased his green body better. As it is, he sort of blends into the greenish yellow.
