Fairy Feathers
2010-03-16

Feathers of a White Peacock at the Banneghatta Zoo, near Bangalore. It was an overcast day and the male had no hesitation in showing off his plumage. However, since these are inside enclosures with netting, there was no way I could get a full shot without the net getting in the way. This one is still shot through the net, but since DoF is quite less, this one has come out reasonably sharp.

  • That is beautiful. I like your eye for detail.

    And each of the feathers look cloned.
