Taken this at a botanical garden at Nuwara Eliya in Sri Lanka. When I was capturing the flower then the insect enter the scene. I was waiting the insect settles at a perfect position and then clicked. What I personally feel is that the color combination adds value to the capture.

Expect the unexpected, right? This is a prime example of that. I think I would try brightening up the bug just a bit and see if that improves the shot. It’s an interesting flower too.

I have had that happen before when a insect jumps into the photo. I like how the direction of the flower and the insect is the same. I agree with @Shirley_Freeman suggestion of bringing up the shadows on the insect.
