Lily, I'll bet you do have a butterfly like it. Here's another picture of that same butterfly from the top angle. Nice enough looking, but you wouldn't think "stunning" and I didn't either until I got my nose on top of it with a zoom lens getting me even closer... and then the sun shone on its wings that were turned so the underside was showing... and I saw the sparkling jeweled pattern. It taught me a lot about really "looking", if you know what I mean. I'll bet if you really looked, you would find the same kind of beauty in your back yard.
