Fancy Feather

This Peacock Feather was found during an outing with my grand daughters. It was then played with in all sorts of make-believe games by the two of them for over a week. Upon their return home, it was forgotten and ended up in my studio for a photo session.

A beautiful and striking view, Mike. I like your symmetric placement and how it emphasizes eye. It seems to have survived the play sessions quite well.

Outstanding close up of the feather, MIke. I especially like the detail in the mini-feather like lines in addition to the overall pattern. Excellent job getting the detail in the large version. devil

Mike: This is a striking image IMO. Great DOF management and a perfectly complementary BG. Really well done.>=))>

Stunning in its simplicity and colors. Just a marvelous combination, and the centered comp works too. I never would have thought of using this background color but it works perfectly. Great!

I really like the BG color you selected for this MIke. It really adds interest and nice work with the feather. Congratulations on the WP
