broad bodied chaser it is! The black frontal marks and gold/yellow spots down the flank give it away. i have not seen one with such a rich coloured thorax as this so I am loving this image for this alone.

I love it totally. The only thing that slightly spoils it for me is the contrast on the far side of the abdomen...blown out a little. I suspect this is due to strong sunlight. BUT!>>>>> strong sunlight illustrates how good a shot this is because the chasers are notoriously difficult to shoot when their temperature is up and the sun is shining.

Great shot! well done you !!
