Hmn. Thought this would have done better. Maybe because of the Santa hat which is why I almost didn't click on it myself, but hat's textures blend well with other textures, and picture has a great unity.

Certainly this is a great shot, but I think you made the right choice for the closer crop, which I think was my choice for 1st place. Because of composition, not just reflection theme, and because it totally centres on the fabulous wings. (I wonder if I am too much of minimalist all the time and this minority opinion gives me pause).
