Stories are normally associated with humans and their emotions, so looking for it on insects may not make sense. But there are great stories among these small creatures. A good example would be a close up shot of an ant carrying a grain of rice.

Fourth is the contrast. Contrast is good for it is effective in making you notice even the minor details of a photo. It also helps you get the attention of the viewers from your subject and its background. A black bug on a white surface may be a good contrast.

Look at its clarity. A photo which is blurry is a turn off. There is what we call a strategic blur and the unnecessary one. Blurring is fine if it is meant to highlight the subject. It also looks good as a whole. The unnecessary is purely not of quality. Be mindful of the details.
