Blue Pansy butterfly
On a green expanse still damp from last night's rain, a Blue Pansy butterfly was perfectly spread out its wings. I slowly approached the butterfly's resting place. I saw it perched peacefully there, its demeanor so calming, as if it were the meeting point between the warm light and the shady green of the bushes. It was truly a harmonious sight.
Its perfectly spread wings showcased every detail of the carvings on them. The blue resembled a calming, deep ocean flanked by bold black and pale lines that resembled a map of its long journey. The two dots at the tips of its wings resembled a pair of eyes ready to survey the entire world.
Behind its beauty today lay a difficult and tense journey. From an egg preyed upon by ants, to a caterpillar hunted by small birds, to a narrow, dark cocoon. And today, it had a pair of beautifully carved wings, showing off to the world under the gentle sunlight and the remnants of last night's rain.

Wow! It's a living expression of Renaissance art and painting!
What a beautiful species you've captured! You have access to an infinite universe of wonders, from what I can see!
Congratulations!
Yes, that's right. Access to the wild is unlimited. However, the places where insects congregate are currently very limited. Nature here is not doing well. Yesterday's flood swept away many things.
I hope everything gets better soon and life returns!
Hello @celestegray and @chisomdamian
Why the downvotes if I haven't done anything wrong? I'm sorry you're acting this way.
Anyway, I hope you have a good day.
It is quite stunning! Great capture. And I love the name. It reminds me of a blue pansy flower
Thank you so much mom, it's great to know that this simple shot can bring that impression. The blue pansy flower's appearance is just as beautiful as a butterfly's. I've never seen this flower before. Thank you for showing me this beauty.
How beautiful 😍
