Red-Eyed Fly Variation + Repost.... Opinions?

Hi again,
Just going through the macros from today and found a variation of the one I posted earlier...
In this shot the flash was in a different place. A lot more off to the side.
I think it makes the fly look a lot better but am not sure about the background. Any comments on which image is better and why?

Thanks
