I see I am in the minority. For no particular reason I like the first photo more than the second.

#2 is better. Composition more focused and less background distraction from main subject.
Thanks for posting.

I think 2 has the better composition.

Number 2. But it also would benefit with a little cropping to off center the beetle more. Other than that it's a good picture.

The second one is a bit better but could be improved by using the tried and true thirds composition tool. The beetle is too centered and thus somewhat static. By placing the beetle in the vicinity of the upper left intersection point the dynamics of the photograph would be greatly improved.

Lots of suggestions to offset the subject.
I pose two questions: when does a central composition make sense? When does it make sense to offset the subject?
“there is absolutely nothing basic about composition in general, it is something you learn, improve and change throughout your life as a photographer and an artist.“

I suggest that composition reveals whatever the subject is to best advantage for the viewer, and subordinates distracting secondary subjects and attempts at subjective artistic renderings.

Number 2 for me. Number one distracting background
