Dancing Peacock

Suggested crop?

que guapa

This lovely beautiful peacock was dancing for a female peacock when I shoot this.
Fortunately, I had a good chance to take his face sharp, while all his feathers and and one of his legs had motion.

The blurry tail and clear face make a beautiful shot.
You might want to crop out the right side...a bit. Just a suggestion.

Nice job - I've waited ages to try and capture this display, but to no avail! Think it might look more dramatic if you were to crop the right side so the feathers fill the frame? 1-2-3 Group

Hamed Saber says:

Thank you all my dear friends.
@Noah: Thanks for invitation, your order took place ;)
@Zed Bee: You are correct, but i liked the tail feathers too... I thought of that crop, but... now it seems your suggestion works better than what i choosed. Specially for over-exposed area on upper right corner.
@Arash Behshadpoor: I'll be thankful if you please advise me on how can i improve it.

Okay, at last I accepted to crop the photo and replace it with cropped version.
I re-uploaded the uncropped version here:

this comment is from my father (Mohammad Fathi)":طاووس در آن نقش و نگاری که هست خود خجل از زشت پای خویش!"but i don think so:)
Posted 41 months ago. ( permalink )

Hamed Saber says:

@baamieh: I wasn't too close! As you can check the EXIF, the focul length of this shot is 31.3mm, and with knowing that my FL multiplier is 6, the standard (35mm) focul length is 187mm, which is a tele FL!

Hamed Saber says:

@3ven: First, say my respect and hello to your father.
Second, I have some shots from female peacock too, but the best thing I shoot is a movie, in which the male tries to pose and dance in every aspect, but the female didn't even look at poor him!
حضرت علي هم حرف مشابهي راجع به پاي طاووس زدن، اما راستش رو بخواي من هم چندان با اين موضوع موافق نيستم

گفتي جواب نده، اما واسه معلومات عموميت خوبه
طاووس ماده اصلاً اين دم زيبا رو نداره
