Re: Peacock

Nice work.

One thing though I do find the bird in the left corner a distraction, how about a crop along the line of its body on the bottom so the peacock fills the whole frame?

Re: Peacock

Lovely shot and it's nice how the crop fills the frame.

As Stanokella says you could get rid of the birds back in the lower left corner. The same crop would also remove the bright top left bit.

That said - great colours and the 'eyes' on the feathers really leap out.

The colours are stunning, this is agreat shot.
I agree with the other too about the crop, it will give the shot evevn more impact. This is a lovely pic though. Put it in the subject of the week too, as it has lots of eyes.
