Beech seedlings
by Julian Barkway
Deep in the Gorges du Doubs on the Franco-Swiss border I found this clump of beech seedlings with some fallen beech leaves for added colour...

I really like this intimate scene you've captured. Great detail and wonderful arrangement and combination of elements. I also like the story and juxtaposition of decaying autumn leaves with what appears like spring greens. Great eye.
Only a couple of minor thoughts/suggestions. To tighten and simplify even more I might consider a square crop from the top. Also, this is another image that would be a great candidate for TK's Lights Triple Play in reducing the brightness of the brighter leaves while retaining and increasing apparent detail. Just some thoughts.
Excellent Julian, nice to see this image.
