This morning the weather was cloudy, the perfect time to explore the universe, hunting for beautiful insects there. My target this morning was a garden of Chinese violets, a favorite among insects, especially butterflies. There were plenty of butterflies in the area I visited, but most of them didn't want me to photograph them. When I tried to approach them, they immediately moved on.

While others fled when I approached, one butterfly let me approach it. It was sipping nectar from the Chinese Violets. I approached slowly, not wanting to scare it away, and it would leave me like its friends. It was a yellowish brown butterfly, a medium-sized butterfly from the Nymphalidae family.

My heart nearly skipped a beat while I was taking the photo when it suddenly moved. A second later, I smiled again because it didn't move far away, it simply moved to another flower on the same tree. Another thing that made me even more enthusiastic about photographing this butterfly was that before it landed on another flower that was already in bloom, it chose to land on one that hadn't yet bloomed. It was as if it knew I wanted to photograph it in a different pose. It was truly a miracle.
