I've only actually been lucky to see an albino peacock once, this brought back great memories of that time. Thanks for posting a beautiful image.

This is really stunning! I don't think I've ever seen an albino peacock, but you have certainly captured the beauty!

This is truly a breathtaking photograph. The stark whiteness of that ethereal-looking bird is stunning by itself, and the effect is amplified by the blurry veil the out-of-focus tail fearthers create. One of my favorites from this site.

Very enchanting photograph; almost surreal and quite beautiful. It fills the photo very nicely and I love how the head is so sharp as opposed to the rest of the body. Pat on the shoulder is deserve, good luck!

The only (very nit picky) thing I might add to this photo, is to not have it quite so centered... the rules of thirds would have pushed this to a 10.

I like this overexposure, the outcome isnow based on structure rather than the usual coloured patterns and this is very effective. Thanks

I have a shot of a similar subject too! Not this good though. Would have helped if the focus was on the head of the bird; it appears to be a little blurred.

Incredible shot. Should be in the top 10 percentile at least. Great subtle color scheme. I'm not sure I like the extremely shallow DOF though. The focus seems to be off ever so slightly for perfection. Hope it does good.

How beautiful. I think the slightly soft focus on the white tail feather tufts really works here and sets a wonderful mood for this great picture. 10

Wow! I've never seen an albino peacock. He is very elegant looking. He is just a wee bit unfocused on the puffy round feathers. Otherwise you did a nice job framing him and the exposure is good.

Desaturation or fluke of nature? :) This is interesting. I had no idea there were albino peacocks.

Excellent and distinctive! I like the clean processing and clarity of the feathers. There's a slight muddy cast to the feathers which probably reflects the true colors of the bird but probably could have brightened up in the processing. Still a fantastic entry.

What a beauty! The composition and light are wonderful. The only think that could have improved the photo was to have his eye in focus and a little light in it. Beautiful creature!

Ohhhh.... the thumbnail looked so very promising! If only the head had been in perfect focus and the rest of the image exactly the same as it is now I would have given this a 10 easy! However I still gave it an 7 just for the composition and tones in it and the monotone high key feel too it.
