I love the low angle on this one -shooting from the subject's perspective is a great way to bring out the personality in the critter. I also like the light in this one, warm (to saturate the colors) and diffused (pleasant specular highlights).
Unfortunately there is very little of the subject in focus. It would help if you had locked the bottom of the frame in place once the leading leg was in focus, and then tilted the top of the camera deeper into the frame. Then the area of acceptable focus would start at that leading leg and fall over the top of the bee's head at an angle. It might have been possible to get most of that leading antenna in focus as well just by tilting the top of the camera.
