Made my day to spot this beauty in Cornwall. I've never seen one in this country before.

Awesome detail and colours!

Great you done well to get this as they move so fast.

[Esther Rosenberg]

Wow. nice close up.

[Richard Sayer]

You did well to 'freeze' this at only 1/400 sec.

[Jesika]

Fast little beasties and so beautiful. A few years ago we had 3 or was it 5, memory faulty here, which visited at the same time for about a week. Bliss.
So pleased you’ve seen one and managed to get this shot

Wow! You caught this with a 1/400 shutter speed? I've seen these guys in my yard. They move so fast. This is really an outstanding capture. You can almost imagine the insect having a personality.
