this acorn among
scattered leaves.

  1. I know I’m nagging way too much, but wouldn’t it be better to present this as two separate images? Like this:

    This acorn,
    left by a squirrel among
    scattered leaves.

    You could also decide to set the squirrel apart, but whichever you choose, with the focus on one and the other as background, the image becomes sharper, I think.

    What about -

    These acorns
    left by squirrels among
    scattered leaves.

  3. Sure. Now what do you do with the acorns? Pick them up and take them home, throw them to a tree trunk, leave them where they are, cover them with leaves?
