I like the way they are huddled up against the mother and that one that seems to be trying to get under her wing. A well composed shot with very nice colors.

Such a sweet scene. You're so lucky to have found them. Great idea, including the lake in your composition. Well-defined details of lines and textures. Exposure is just right.

Nice shot with the layers of colors and the subjects in the foreground.
The focus is spot on within the frame.
The lighting is crisp and clear as are the shadows.
Nice perspective and DOF that enhances the shot.
It is a little unbalanced towards the right. I feel like it needs a bit more centering, though it appears that you put the center right on the body and the ducklings head.
Good overall.

    many thanks again;
    it is always important to leave more space in front, where the animal is looking;
    centering it would be a big mistake;

This is for certain a sigh of spring, and all these gosling are so very very cute. I like the way they are so close together and also keep very close to mum. They are all standing out well from the background, but mum's head is probably disappearing a bit because of the dark reflection in the water.

Your photo is nice and sharp and it is clear and well defined details to be seen in all the birds. I also think the exposure is good.

The photo is nicely cropped and the birds are well placed within the frame. Indeed a lovely and well taken photo with a very good DOF, and I wish you luck with the contest.

I am so envious that you have seen baby geese this spring because there are none in my town and I wonder if the eggs froze during our very chilly April. The lighting is excellent and seeing the mother's full head is especially attractive. What's not to like about those fuzzy goslings? Keep us posted on their growth!

These goslings are just a beautiful sight to behold. I love seeing mom with all her adorable fuzzy babies. The color and clarity is superb and the detail throughout the photo is excellent. What a great close up view of this family. Just love the title, and seeing this cute bunch.

Cute, even as we see mostly the behind of the birds. The scene is interesting because it shows us how the babies seek their mother, but mom is use to that and it is more important to here to scan the surroundings for danger. The curving shore and the water behind in a triangular shape emphasize the family nicely. The photo is good balanced and framed.
