I was wondering how you "removed the background", and if it is a very difficult process?

It took time.

Very Tedious work. I erased all I Could with a mask and corrected mistakes with a layer.
I had taken just one snap and it was gone. It landed in the back of my jeep on a clear bucket.
Really bad looking comp.
When I Cleaned up the Background, I actually had to replace a leg that was hidden behind the bucket.

Floating, alien Diogmites shot. Nice effect. Appears to be Diogmites neoternatus.

Hi, Kathleen.

What an amazing shot of a species of Diogmites (aka "hanging thief"). Wish I could give you a species, but maybe Herschel Raney or one of the other asilid experts can do that. Thanks for sharing your work here!
