What a great posting of a young goose, it is not often you see them photographed. The title is great, it does seem like a smile in all the joys of Spring.

Comment from Renate-Bertodi


I have also painted some geese from childhood memories and do you know, I see here that their legs are much longer than I had remembered,though I should have realised, as they chased me and by how tall they were, with their necks craning, they were taller than me, at 6 years old!! Frightening creatures. thank goodness the cook nun saved me, by catching me in her arms as I ran, with thirty of these monsters after me, in the yard, to the safety of her chest.

Comment from Kaymart


Another awesome nature shot! This duck does appear to be laughing or smiling. I wonder what he finds so humorous? :-)
The pond in the background and the greenish ground on which he's standing are a wonderful addition.

Comment from ArtistCharles


Looks like the two of you were having a very pleasant conversation. She doesn't seem to be scolding you. Good focus and details in the shot, nice colors, the color in her mouth makes a nice focal point. I think you could vignette this slightly to help cover some of the less interesting background. Well seen and well taken.

A fine shot of the gosling. It looks like he is almost full grown. Nice colors and great details. The setting with those feathers is pretty much what you can expect.

Great capture, Pat, showing this lovely Canadian gosling looking as if he's smiling at you - almost looks as if he's laughing! He looks like he stopped walking so that you could take his photo. Very good lighting and focus. Lovely composition. Suzanne
