Taken in the park.
I don't have a family myself so found it difficult to relate to this one ;) so I decided animals have better grasp of family than I do so I went for the swans.
I tried to focus on composition here. I have the classis "S" and i felt my DOF was good as well.
Not a ribbon winner. Was going more for comments of the composition and DOF.
My other idea was a his and her razor and shaving cream ;)

Well. . . I for one, always give an emotional edge to duck pictures. I liked this one a lot and am really surprised that it did not score higher! It very much looks like a nurturing family, and I just love your sepia tones. I think you did a great job on this!!!!
Compositionally, the lines on the adult lead you straight into the center of the photo which is a slightly OOF neck which curves and leads you back to the adult. The concept is wonderful.
A lovely idea, but the shoot is OOF. At this distance it should be much clearer and cleaner. Did you use a tripod? It looks like camera movement causing the blur.
This is a bit busy. I had to study it to figure out that those were goslings. But once I got that and read the title - I got a bit of a chuckle. The water is a tad harsh and detracts from the nice tones of the birds. I wish the babies necks and faces weren't so dark.
