Yes, it coud be sharper, I could have methyl alcoholed the moth, tacked him
on the pitcher plant, ripped the pitcher plant out of the ground and brought
it inside and staked to a nice draft free-wall; but then instead of a nature
photograph I would have a denatured photo. For the five seconds the moth
graced me with his presence, I am pleased with the picture.

For any one curious I am finding the 75-300 Canon F/5.6 IS lens to be soft
at 300 even at F/13.

Great pic m8!

Please don't take other comments too harshly

IMHO the vibrancy of a captured moment usually overwhelms even the best of
carefully crafted studio shots

Nonetheless, tis good
