Awesome! I love these flies but never caught one!

Ufffffffffff, espectacular el tama?o y color de esta mosca...me he quedado impresionado.

translation Spanish to English -- "Ufffffffffff, spectacular size and the colour of this fly... I am very impressed! "

What a beautiful fly!
It really keeps up with the most popular insects like dragonflies or butterflies!

Flies surpass all arthropods without doubts. It is a question of taste.

Hi Jorge,

you don't need to persuade me.
I just put myself in "mainstream's" position.

It is really beautiful! It has light blue balancers an the grey stripes on it's thorax appear like a pinstripe suit of a business man. It wears stylish yellow shoes and its wings look like fragile glass. Its abdomen owns all rainbow colors, but the colors are not too saturated. So it is far from being overdressed, cheap or kitschy.
Not to forget the beautiful "rest" of the fly.

Greetings
Nele
