Vincent Bertrand from Montréal, Canada
Excellent framing, cutting the tip of the feathers (it would otherwise have been too lage for nothing). Especially so with that hot background (ie : way overexposed if included in frame). Perfect shot.

@Vincent Bertrand: You're right, Bertrand, it was way over exposed, and difficult to rectify.
Viewfinder from Bradenton, United States

Japanalia from Yokohama, Japan
This is wonderful! The bird was showing you (and the peahens) its very best! I love the "many eyes of the peacock"!

@Japanalia: There was one peahen in the vicinity, but she didn't seem the least bit interested. Perhaps that's why he tried harder to entice her! ;D
