JR,
Greetings. What a beauty! I particularly like the detail and the environment. Could stand to tone down the leaf in the ULC and remove the little green leaf in the LRC. Thanks for posting.
Cheers,
-Michael-

Great image of this nice little bird. The gold crest shows very nicely and the fallen leaves compliment the gold crest.

What a beautiful bird. Nice exposure and sharpness. I'm enjoying the yellow golden leaves around that match the crest.
Nice done, John. Welcome aboard and looking forward to more.

It's a beauty! Love the fall setting, and it matches the bird's field marks perfectly. Exposure is perfect, but I agree the leaves in upper left corner could be toned down. I also feel the image could use a bit of CCW rotation.

That's a great looking photo. Love the clarity of the water and the different colors of leaves. Fine job.

Welcome Johnny! I like the included habitat, but I agree with the others about toning down the leaves in the ULC. I might brighten the bird ever so slightly.

Goldcrest are very nice birds to spot.
Apart from the great autumn-bath settings you 'catch' your birds in I do like the partial lifted crest In this one.
