I like the tilt and the dof. It actually got a 7 from me.

Ouch. Have to admit though, it only got a 5 from me, and I'm a generous voter. Sorry 'bout that.

too much like a snapshot, needs a tighter crop on the frame

looks like a picture of a picture or else it was oversharpened, or maybe my monitor sucks

frame and comp are good but it has to be sharper

The face and body are a bit out of focus or too sharp maybe. The feathers are gorgeous! I do love peacocks.

Greetings from the Critique Club.

First impressions are of the nice intense greens.

Technically this is good. Great DOF. Composition allows the eye to flow through the frame well. Exposure seems good. Processing looks natural.

Artistically this is not bad, the shape of the plant forms a pleasing shape but we do get taken to the OOF bit at the end, I'd prefer that to be in focus. There are some dark lines in the background that it would have been good to eliminate if you could (place some plant material over them perhaps?)

In summary a nice shot that was executed well. I do wonder if a few voters knocked you down for the subject being a plant (an extension of a flower)?

Feel free to PM me if you have any queries.

wow! nice image - the colors blend well and every thing is nice and sharp - but the eggs look a bit out of place - I still like it though
