That is one very cool-lookin' bug! You definitely picked the right shot to go with and I don't even know what the other one was. This is very nicely done, especially straight from the camera.

Dude! That's some serious close up! I can see the next bite that he has in his grubby little hand!! Great job with this!

I think the harsh light and shadows are hurting this photo. I do like the composition and the colour.

Nice focus and zoom. He almost has a long snout like an ant eater. In a perfect scenario, I'd bump up the green background, but good job for no editing.
