Lovely display. The composition looks fine. The side profile looks nice as it enhances the eye contact. Nicely captured. Thanks for sharing.

Good to see an image of a peacock displaying without any intervening vegetation. Where was this clicked? How much is the crop?

It is not easy to get adequate depth of field with a long lens as the peacock has its head about 14-15 inches or so infront of the tail feathers. Narrow aperture, as far as possible and choosing the right focus point becomes critical. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Nice image Dr.Katre. The dancing pose is nice. Nice to know that you have so many birding options in and around your place. Thanks for sharing.
