@badala: You are too kind, badala.
I don't like insects but it's a good macro shot and has marvelous details.

@Evi: Insects are such beautiful critters, Evi.
This is an stunning insect. Looks cooler because you're actually carrying it, giving a good idea of its size!

Not sure, but I'm pretty sure we have similar colored species of them. Huge ones like this!
