Such a beauty!
It's a moth I'm shure.
It might be a Geometridae, but I'm not expert on moths.
Perfect sharpness and details!
5* photo!
Hello Pedro, you have captured a Latticed Heath moth (Chiasmia clathrata clathrata) a member as you say of the geometridae.
It is well seen with its wings and antenae seen against the light.
The DOF (depth of field /focus) is very shallow with the use of F2.8 it would of been better I think to have used F3.5 - F5.6 this should still keep the BG blurred which makes the subject stand out.
TFS and hope the ident helps you to be able to write some notes about it
