Hello Melina,
interesting shot of a Hairstreak butterfly showing a false head with its tails and eye spots on hindwings in order to confuse predators.
Well describing snapshot, but details on the butterfly too soft to be well presented in the size shown.
Looks as if the picture is very tightly cropped from a much larger one, and therefore the chip resolution is at its limits.
But also the very short shutter speed with a widely open f/2.6 is not ideal for a good depth of field to obtain sharp details. Slower shutter speed and f/8 would be on the safer side here.
Certainly an interesting contribution. Thank you!
Best regards,
Peter

Nice shot Melina!
A bit darker and soft on focus, I think.
Nice POV and colours!
TFS!

Hi Melina,
This butterfly is Arawacus togarna (Lycaenidae).
For better sharpness, I'd suggest using smaller aperture size next time.
Best regards,
Dmitry
