Excellent captures :)
Pics look like they need some extra oomph such as slight saturation increase.

Great shots, Paul! How big are these buggies? They seem to be a bit bigger than the usual leaf hoppers :) I haven't seen any of these beautiful guys here. Wish I will be lucky enough to see one ;)

Thanks Leo, I think they are between 7-10 mm long.
