hi Gyorgy
Another good one well converted to b&w
I like the focus on the ducks with the buildings at BG still well discernable
Most of the charm here is obviously due to the little cuties
have a nice evening and a merry Xmas

Hi Gyorgy, Perfect focus on the ducks. The blurry BG stands out the ducks even more. The little ones sheltered under their parents wings. A lovely and warm family portrait. B/W goes well with the atmosphere. Thank vey much and Happy Holidays

Love this.

Love the focus on the little ones, with the classic The Hague skyline in the background.

B&W is perfect for this

hello

it's so cute, taken at the right level to be part of the geese family!

Hi Gyorgy
Very well executed and skillfully converted to b&w shot. I love the "duckling's eye" point of view.
As per Claude's comment: they are actually geese (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egyptian_Goose). But they are very close cousins - ducks and geese are members of Anatidae family. :-)
Have a nice weekend

Hello György,
I saw this older photo by coincidence. It's a cute family photo very well captured with the easily recognizable old and new buildings in the background.
Best wishes,
Gert
