Thoughts on this Blue please!

This little guy really didn't want to stay still for me this morning! The only photo I have from above with his wings open is unfortunately nothing more than a bright blue blur, and this is the best I was able to manage:

Not the best photo for identification! At the time, I thought I was looking at an Adonis Blue - is there anything in this photo that would rule this out? Thanks in advance.

(Taken this morning at Aston Rowant, Oxon.)

Thanks Andy! It's a first for me, and I was nervous that I was letting my enthusiasm affect my judgement!
