Love your little duck family, but I'm not so sure about their positioning in this shot. They are smack in the middle of the far edge. Try cropping off part of the bottom (the part with the branches sticking out of the lower right bottom) and also some (about a third) of the water on the left. This will leave your ducks toward the lower right and will be a more pleasing composition.

I like the second better too. Now they seem like the object of focus.
