 Followed this peacock around for a while before on of the gardeners came up and whistled, and up went his tail feathers. So thanks to him.

I like the way the tail is out of focus, but there is also quite a bit of the head out of focus too. Nice shot otherwise.

Brilliant colors and a very good background. Just needs a smidge more foreground dodging and detail? Better than mine, though. 9.

this has a strange quality about it - a bit like a video still, rather than a picture. Feels a bit low on detail, or interpolated. Sharp on beak, but not quite around trhe eye, etc.

If peacocks can be said to have an expression, you've caught it. Brilliant color, great composition.

I loved the way that the peacock's tail frames the head. You have a great eye for picture placement. I wish that it was taken in better focus. It still looks soft and over sharpened. I also like that you got the head feathers into this shot. Great job!

Reminiscent of a recent Worth entry ;)

Excellent capture with the tail in the background. I would have cloned out that little speck on the tip of his beak and lightened his eye just a tad.
