All I can say is wonderful. Perfect exposure on the whites. You've managed to maintain a lot of detail. The head of the bird may be just a little bit oversharpened though.

Wonderful shot - i love the title - the placement to the far most right really works - especially with the lines leading to its head

ooh - Razzle dazzle - the Buzby Berkeley of the animal world. Soon the camera will pan outwards to a chorus line of lovely peacock dancers in white feathers and this one will begin her solo song. Look she has a tiara with her fancy costume. She's the loveliest bird on stage. (Unfortunately for my daydream, she is a HE and the peacock song sounds like someone screaming Help Help.)

wowzer, i've seen these before roaming an australian zoo and they are just gorgeous! I think the crop is a little tight n the bottom, i dont like the way the legs have been cut off but this is only a minor criticism
Post actions
stunning...love the composition
Post actions
Beautiful, love all the shades of white you have managed to capture so well. 8

Stunning! I love it. My only suggestion would have been to desaturate the upper portion so the reds don't show through, as they're just a little distracting.
