Description
If I'm not mistaken, this is an old female Polyommatus Icarus. The enthusiast entomologists will tell if I'm wrong.

This photo was taken a while ago, and I overlooked it because it didn't seem special. However, I took a closer look, and I was compelled by the graphical aspect of this butterfly's body.

I recommend watching in full resolution to take a look at those scales and hairs.

Also, I'm too lazy to add it to the usual bunch of groups. It's more of an internal release. Do not hesitate to request it for your groups, though.
