the best peacock shot of the challenge. I like the colors, the focus is good, and the contrast between the green grass and blue feathers is striking. I've always been a fan of profile shots with these guys, but you've captured a neat expression on him. Good job.
I'd have liked to see more of the bird's eyes, crown or tail feathers. As it is, I feel like I've only got hints of the first two. The angle of the bird's neck highlights the ruffled feathers which disrupt an otherwise nice curve. The color of the background seems a bit more saturated than the bird itself; the presentation would have been stronger if you'd have desaturated the background somewhat.
Nice, compelling composition, but I feel the saturation here is too strong and punch. There's a jarring transition between the lime green and the rich blue, and I wish it was toned down a bit. 6
