Very nice shot! Lovely and clean, and the dew drops are excellent.
Re. the ID, I think I can see the edge of a fore-wing cell spot, so this would then be Common Blue (Polyommatus icarus) rather than Brown Argus.

Super crisp and with lovely patterns. The tiny dew drops add to the compostion very nicely.

A clean and sharp image. The dew on its wings is a bonus! Well done!
