Christopher , You handled the color toning and the composition well. I think the end of the acorn could be a bit more defined either w/ contrast or tonal adj. Nicely done.

I really like the side lighting on this, Chris. You can almost feel that ray of sunlight coming in to the image. Excellent!

[Brent Wellander]

I like how this gives the impression of gold leaf!

Thanks Denise, Jules, and Brent! Appreciate the comments. Good point, Denise, on the end of the acorn; I'll look into that.
