Ideals or ideas? ;) I know the feeling.

This may have been a little more impactful If you could have stood the bulb on its own, no human element to it.

Such a terrific idea for this challenge, though I think it would have been better left in full color.

Awesome!!! The tones in this are so beautiful! The feathers bring your eye into towards the bird and then up to form that very pleasing leaf-like shape. The symmetry of the bird coupled with the off-center subject make the crop really dynamic. I love it! If there would be anything to change at all, I would have liked the crop on the bottom to be closer to his feet, there is just a little too much dead space on the bottom compared to everything else. But that's very minor.

Unfortunately I can't vote, but if I could 10! 10! 10! 10!!
After seeing everything else... this should get the blue imo.

All of the lines really set up a lot of motion in this shot. Nice work. I also like that the peacock is not centered, but rather in the left of the frame.

The nice scenery is distracting me from your great subject

Nice composition. Would have liked it to be in full color though.

slightly dark ... hard to really see the person well as he blends into the trees and background ... nice job capturing the stopped motion

It would be a lot better if there were a light background behind boarder as it took me a few seconds to fine object of scene
