[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This was taken yesterday when I was at the stud at Cholderton, they have quite a few peacocks and peahens. This one was dancing to the peahens,every time I got at the right angle to take him showing all his lovely feathers he would turn around and show me his bottom. I have never seen a peacock dance before, he shakes his bottom and all his feathers quiver making a russling sound. It was quite a sight to see.

All C&C welcome

Great POV people are always capturing Peacocks from the fron but i think the rear is just as beautiful as you have shown. Great shot and frame. Well done

Hi Jane,
wonderful idea to capture the rear side of the subject which is very un common but is looking nice.

Good POV and details are great.

Unusual shot yet effective. Very well done Jane.

Hi Jane,

This is one of the best pictures of the Peacocks. I never thought that peacock rear is also that beautiful.

Its never easy to take picture of peacock while his rear wings up because when they open it they shake it or lets say shiver it to attract peahens. I tried to capture it many times with my poor camera and always have blur on them.

But you have managed it superbly everything is fine here.

Well done and THANKS FOR SHARING.

With best regards,
