Seems the bug was feeding on the flower. If possible moving closer would help as that would remove the other distractions and get a closer view. Thanks for sharing.

A blister beetle. These beetles exude a toxic liquid which causes very unpleasant blisters on an enemy's skin.

There is a leaf in the background which passes just behind the beetle. Without this leaf, the image would have been strengthened. The main challenge here is the central placement of the subject. Subject at the dead centre makes the image static.
