Actually it does bother me a bit, but I can totally sympathise with trying to get this lines up properly! I think you could negate this by cropping in further, clipping some other extremeties if necessary. The "spike" is a really nice feature, looks pretty dangerous at this angle (which is awesome). Nice shot!
 
Not overly bothered by it but if you want to keep framing can always clone out the antenna completely we are not to know it was there...

Very interesting angle and you have certainly made that spike look fierce.

As we are picking favourites again I got to say #1 is my fav :) :p
 
Great angle on that shieldbug
I've not seen an spiked one before
it is a shame about the antenna but as you say it was a tricky one to get
 
Thanks for the comments I was gutted to find I was about 0.5 mm out with the framing
