The Depth of a Beauty?

How do we see beauty at glance?
Have you ever wondered why we think something is beautiful? I saw a lotus at the pond and I was amazed by it, followed by classifying it as beautiful, well in this case it means pleasing in my eyes, optically. Next to it, there were just a bunch of floating leaves which at glance did not attract my attention at all. When I recall this kind of moment, I am wondering why I gave such kind of opinion about beauty, justified it such as that lotus has a higher degree of beauty than merely floating leaves, meanwhile both are just living like what they should be, no more no less.

A higher degree of perceiving beauty
Then I try to see the lotus from a different depth. When my eyes are captured on how colorful it is, I know that I omit the fact that lotus is actually just material that reflects a certain range of wavelength to our eyes and that is it I am not really impressed anymore, the same goes for the floating leaves. So now the beauty depends on how depth we justify something, but to a certain degree, we cannot say A is better than B because both are just simply working differently and are incomparable.

How do I see humans right now?
When we just set our observation depth only at the degree of appearance, indeed most men will have similar opinions about physically attractive girls, and that is the problem because it is an unfair judgment and doesn't contain most of the required aspects to qualitatively define a person. We are just too lazy to consider the whole story into it. We are humans born with the genetic lottery, we did not have choices to be born with which kind of attributes. So the only fair justification is how we manage our attributes started when we are really mature and can think by ourselves through attitude, morality, intelligence, and even appearances themselves. Anyway, this is just me on how I pull back myself to avoid the trap of getting fall into a certain kind of shallow judgment.
