Adorable gaggle you've got there. I like the farmhouse in the back, it's like they own it.

Love the low angle on this and the perspective it gives with the barn in the background. Good depth-of-field too to keep the barn recognisable, but slightly blurred so that it doesn't clash with the foreground.

Great include of the four geese in the foreground in contrast to the barn.

Now, let's warm up our voices on this fine morning. Nice winter shot, and nice use of the building in the background.

Lovely geese! It's almost like a story with this PoV and the barn in the background.

very nice image, love the dof and how the lead goose seems to be almost daring you to take his portrait.

Close enough to be friends. DOF is an add.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I really like the atmosphere of this image. The white geese on the snow seems to fit although I don't normally think of the two together. The structure in the background really ties it all together. Great dof! 9

nice shot IMO, I like the lighting , maybe just a little lower contrast to get a little more details back in the feathers. 6

nice posing ;)

Good deep colors without seeming overprocessed. I like the late day (early morning?) light. Good clarity. The low shooting angle is the best, and great backdrop. Well done!

Perhaps just a simple shot of geese, but it's quite pleasing, the light is lovely, and the background really quite appropriate. Well done.
