Indian Peafowl

[Supreet Sahoo]

Shot this peafowl in Bandipur. The guy was around 20 feet away.

Specs:
Camera Model Canon EOS 7D
Lens EF70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM
Shooting Mode Aperture-Priority AE
Tv( Shutter Speed ) 1/200
Av( Aperture Value ) 6.3

Please let me know how this can be improved.

I would prefer a narrow aperture to increase the depth of field. A lot depends on the branch where the peacock is perched and the lighting. If there is enough separation between the branch and the background, then it will come clean.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi

Nice shot Supreet, it is good that you managed to get the tail as well. Agree with comments made by Sabyasachi

Thank you Praveen and Sabyasachi. Agreed with the comments Sabyasachi , a good learning point for me here and will keep this in mind next time i'm shooting under such conditions.

The vertical composition looks nice. It is good that you could manage to get the tail feathers in full. The eye contact is good. What was the ISO? Overall nicely captured. Thanks for sharing.

Agree with comments made...the branch to the right top corner, apart from being useful for putting up your copyright info, frames the bird well:)
