2012 Laryl

January 15

why are peacock feathers so hard to photograph (for me anyway!?)
I worked on this one for a long time, maybe it's my very sharp
high contrast monitor but it is almost "too much" for my tired
eyes.. still I like it and feel accomplished as I've always
wanted to photograph it. :)

Nicely composed. I've always loved that blue in these feathers!

I agree with you Laryle, they are an absolute pain to photograph well. But you succeeded.

It looks beautiful against the dark BG. I've only photographed LIVE ones - on the bird...
