Reason: A well-composed shot of a very rare species; while some may feel it falls a little short of the very high insect standard we have set, we are lucky to have a picture at all. According to a recent study, some details about the species are unreported; this, the authors say, "may be due to its secretive nature and rare occurrence". As such, I think we should be willing to overlook minor technical imperfections. We also have a female and a mating pair from the same photographer.
