Aditya,
I like the composition. I would like it better if the peafowl in the right were not there as it is cut off. It would have been great if a stream of light would have fallen on the primary subject. Borders look good in prints but distract critiquing in web forums.

Yeah, the other peafowl is a little distracting, would have loved to keep it out of the frame but I'm still in the process of getting used to long primes :)
