the building in the background distracts you from the bird.

Nice to show the environment but in this case the bird is not a strong focal point. Firstly because it's in the shadow whereas the brightest area is the grass behind - need more light on it and less elsewhere - and secondly because the image has detail from foreground all the way through to background - shallow DOF and blurred background might help.

Breathtaking scenery. I really like the fact that the peacock really "fits" the background too. It looks to me like the foreground grass is overprocessed or something (not sure whether it's just a different variety of grass either), but it's a little distracting. Also the focus of the peacock is a little soft (but these are minor points IMHO).

Great job! (8)

What a beautiful flower! I only wish the were a bit more light on the entire flower to bring out the beautiful colors as in the bottom petal, the rest of the image just seems a bit dark to me, though that is a matter of preference and others may not agree.

This is too cute. I love how he looks like he's cross-legged. And the title is perfect.
