What a fascinate pair indeed. I also very much like your choice of background. Using more penguins with a shallow depth of field gives us a glimpse of the environment and is a fitting touch.

Really well done, Enrique.

Enrique,

A wonderful nature portrait. The oof background is handled very well - blurred enough to bring attention up front, yet enough form and detail to complete the story.
