Tomas:
This is a very difficult photograph to take, and you have done well to get a sharp image. Two points, though:
Hyles lineata is an American species. This insect is the Convolvulus Hawkmoth Agrius convolvuli.
The flash has exposed for the background at the expense of the moth. This can be improved, but not completely corrected PP, and I have posted a workshop to suggest how. I hope you like it.
Regards, Nigel.
