One of the more unique shots I've seen of this subject. Most of the time I see photos with the feathers spread out. You did a great job with the composition which really focuses on the pattern of it's wing. Though it would also nice to have the rest of the body in focus as well. Perhaps not an easy task under the circumstances but for the purpose of this challenge it works out very nicely :)

Great job Lee!

Great pictures of the peacocks. I was waiting for the weekend to go shoot them, you beat me to it.
This was my first close encounters with them, what a beauty... they are so...whats the word.. MAJESTIC.
Great job
RK
