Slightly grainy because of cropping from a larger photo, this is a rare view of the upper surface of the wings of a hairstreak butterfly.
It looks so velvety ;)

@Teresa Durães: Thank you, Teresa.
Ditto to what Manuela said, and also that the crisp capture of the yellow flowers provides a nice contrast!
