It’s a small butterfly on a rugged baby guava.
It’s closed wings are compact and looks like
a 3D eye blended on it—a delicate art of nature.
It’s surrounded by some minute plants with the tiniest of green leaves I have ever seen,
growing on a worn-out red brick. Two other fallen leaves seem to have
absorbed a tint of crimson from the brick and thus adds an auburn charm.
Nevertheless all this simple beauty around, the baby guava feels bitten by a butterfly!

Great shot Firas; your best one yet! The ‘EYE’ looks equally weird and stunning!! The picture actually gave me an eerie feeling at first, but later my vision kinda grew in to it and suddenly it looked awe-fukn-some!!! Keep clicking!!!!

That’s an interesting wing on that butterfly. I suppose the eye is to ward predators off

That must be right, Mike. I have not given much thought to it earlier, but yes, it certainly is a food for thought—But I think you said the right reason!
Thank you.

Great shot! The eye patterns of certain butterflys are evoloution in motion, they are to make the butterfly seem to be a larger insect and less apealing to predators..:-)

Yes Ed, you have a clearer and practical reason for the ‘eye’ of the wing. Marvelous idea of the nature!
