A warm welcome to yo Jen! A very nice looking image to start up with. Nice smooth light on the scene, and a nice clean BG. Well done.

Welcome Jen. I hope you enjoy your time here on N&W. I would suggest that you move the 'skeeter off center. For me adding some more of the flower on the right and the top might work ~ Ron

Thanks very much KCollett, Ron and Birdie for the warm welcome and feedback.
Ron, I do have another image with the mozzie off-centre, and agree that the composition is better. I will try to upload it, the one I posted looked a bit cleaner to my eye. Jen

Way to start with a winner, Jen! The color of the flower and the smooth BG are terrific, and I like your second comp a bit more than the original. Great work!

Welcome to the FM Nature and Wildlife forum...it is the best section on FM forums and the best on the internet as a whole.

I really enjoyed your picture, don't know if anyone has posted a mosquito on here before. The beautiful purple flower with the dark contrasting mosquito works very well.

As for the crop, I would actually move the mosquito the other way from centre so that the mosquito is more to the right of the frame and more dead space behind it. This may sound a bit unconventional but it is actually working with the conventional rule of 3rds for the flower instead and I think it would work for this image.

Thanks very much Geoff for the warm welcome, and also the feedback. Neither of the images posted have been cropped, it's how they were taken. I didn't think of using the rule of 3rds for this one. Thank you, will have a look at the set I took and see if one of them will work that way.
