Description
Couldn't quite get him totally centered.I hope you like it.
EDIT: ** GOBSMACKED ** The DD is a real suprise to me but i am very, very chuffed about it! Thanks to all that felt this picture was worthy of being featured to the masses.
EDIT EDIT: I've set up a print for this shot as requested by a fellow deviant but my camera was accidentally in 1 Meg mode when i took this (and other) shot so i'm guessing the original is probably too small to be acceptable for print (Dumbass!).

Oh my goodness. That is absolutely amazing. You are very talented! It almost looks like a photograph. As I don't know too much about how to critique art I'm not going to be critical. But I will say that I love this drawing. Do you mind if I put you on my Deviant watch?

Well seek solace in the fact that you made me chuckle. Nope, i guess that doesn't help! Whatever you thought, i'm just glad you liked it, draw or not.

Thanks, Used photoshop to add a bit of contrast & saturation, the image was a little flat. Glad you like it.

made me realise how beautiful and powerful nature is. The radial direction of the feathers seems like to be an explosion of mother-nature , and that is what happen when disasters happen because we did not appriciate the nature itself.

Nice photo!
Peacocks are beautiful animals. You can find a lof of them in my country (don't know if that's the same with other countries), especially around farms. And they are a great subject to photograph, especially when they have spread out there feathers like on this photo.
I have some photo's with peacocks as well. One of them can be find in my gallery ( [link] ). You might want to take a look at it.
Congrats with the DD.

That is a really well done photo! i love the detail on his huge tail, and the bright colours, peacocks are crazy animals I thinkt he fact that it isn't perfectly centred isn't a problem. Do you ever see nature perfectly align something like that?

A great shot nevertheless, don't worry about not getting it centered... The colours are so brilliant, it almost seems a bit unreal, great shot! And as I experienced it myself, these birds move so fast, I din't get it at all in a "photo-worthy" position, so this one's just perfect!
