While I was cleaning my backyard, I suddenly found a butterfly perched on a mango seed, I found this butterfly in a dirty area (garbage dump), but because of the uniqueness of this butterfly I became interested in photographing it. I don't know the type and name of this butterfly, but if you look at its physical appearance, it has a relatively larger size and its color is also unique, namely brown and there are black spots in the middle of its wings. It didn't fly at all when I tried to approach it, and that gave me the opportunity to capture its beauty well, from a close enough distance we can see every detail from the shape, color, to the size. However, the shape of its wings is no longer perfect because there is a slight tear on the back of its wings, maybe this is a butterfly that survived a predator attack

Okay friends, now let's see the beauty and uniqueness of this butterfly.
Enjoy
