First of all, I'm always amazed when someone captures something like a fast-moving insect in total stillness this way. Then there's the clarity of the shot - look closely, and you'll see that it's ALL clearly in focus and sharp.

Finally, the contrast of the colors brings out the richness of the insect's colors and lines and body amazingly well.
