Spring arrived in Chengdu... so it was the perfect day to go to the Panda Breeding center.
This cutie is 6 months old and was running away from his mom the whole time. Great to watch and to snap.
Don't you want one in your garden?
Cheers

David

Hello David.
Cute little fellow in nice pose, Good capture, well composed with good details. I think that contrast and brightness could be a bit increased.

Hi David,

I think the shot of this beautiful little panda bear good...but could be better. Composition is perfect but IMHO the white balance is way off as is the lighting and sharpness. See WS i've posted.
Still the shot is well worth the smiley's...

Best regards,

Edwin

PS: bekijk de foto net op een andere computer en ik denk dat ikzelf mijn scherm moet callibreren...

Hello David!
Lovely Panda! Good composition, details and colors! Sweet photo!
TFS, Best regards, Zorica

No thanks... looking at those claws I think I'll pass, David ;o). Excellent sharpness here. It's a beautiful portrait of a beautiful, cute but -let's not forget!- wild animal. I think I'd have this enlarged if it was my picture...

Great shot of what must be one of the cutest baby animals on the planet. Sharp details and I love the focus on his eye.
Great stuff
Thanks for sharing

hi David

Very nice panda portrait shot. You got real close. Visitors allowed to be near them in close range?

TFS, bill

Hi David,

Of ik hem in mijn tuin wil? ik heb maar één zielig bosje bamboo staan, is vast niet genoeg.
Wat een heeeerlijke opname, je voelt bijna hoe wollig zacht hij is. Genieten.

aaawww... what a lovely photo of a sweet panda cub (is that what the babies are called?!)

I guess you live in Chengdu? ... how is life out there? ... I'd love to get deeper into China and travel (I've only been to Beijing so far)... one day!
How is the school you work for? ... I'm currently teaching at an international kindergarten /elementary school in Nagoya, Japan... enjoy it very much!

Anyway... thanks again for the wonderful photo... I love the lighting, POV, framing... with the log etc

THANK YOU!

Hi David

This is endangered species... you are lucky to have this inside your photo collections.... I wonder how lone we could see them... congrats

What a sweet and mischievous face! Great capture of a moment that seems full of more than we can see...and some important thoughts behind those eyes:) Good use of light and a well-balanced composition. Well done.

Hi David, A really classic photo of this Panda. It is his paws i like especially, with great clarity and good colours throughout. TFS. Murray.

Hi David
This Panda baby is so adorable and precious. I'll take 2 for my garden. A wonderful portrait with sharp detail, colours and composition. Well done.
