Peacock taken at Alma Park zoo Brisbane, QLD, Australia. - Canon EOS 400D SLR 35mm - Sigma 50-500mm lens. (2006)
This photograph is unmanipulated and no cropping performed.
I love every one of your pictures, Curtis, but this one is really "superb," to quote Robin Brown. The framing of the head and tail feathers is perfection!
Superb shot Curtis, was it at the extreme end of the zoom or pretty close. I suspect it was fairly close. Excellent display of colours.
Artist Reply: Thanks for your nice comment Robin, I can't remember actually... If I would imagine it... It would probably have been 1/2 - 3/4 length as it is a big lens! :)
