Well you have posted some really unusual animals recently sg. Love the Panda here.

You got both the black and the white just right here. Nicely done. ....and caught him doing what they do best....and most often...lol...eating bamboo. Good focus on this guy as well. Nice soft background too....lets this little guy shine!

You did a nice job on the black and white as well as stop action.
I know you don't edit, but if you did, I would lighten the eye.
Great focus, fine exposure, nice close up of this too sweet for words Panda.
Nice work Fred :)

    thanks a lot again Sandra;
    Pandas have very small black eyes that can be seen only when they look at the camera;
    unfortunately when they are eating, the eyes are more than half closed, as I can see on at least the 3 dozens pics I took;
    I'll try to brighten one and send to your mail to see what I am meaning;

Well, you were right on the mark this time. The white fur looks like white fur (:)), except where it shows the natural coloration around the jowls. Cute pose, looks like he's playing the bamboo pipe instead of eating it. Sharp focus, good DOF, good composition with him facing into the space on the left.

not a bad balance of the black and white. Your whites are nicely held but makes the eyes very dark. But we can't have everything :)

I have plenty of bamboo in my background i can give you to take to the zoo next time ;)

A great close up of this panda is interesting. I like how you show him eating. Probably one of his favorite things to do. Thanks for sharing.

Oh heck I thought he is playing the flute..lol. The angle of the shot of panda snacking is great. The clarity is great. The capture of the light is great. The image is balanced and eye appealing to the viewer. Good eye and great job overall

The challenge of black and white together...you succeeded very well in this photo. It's nice to see a panda doing something besides staring or rolling around (my experience at the National Zoo in Washington, D.C.). Excellent photo composition and cropping.

Very nice exposure! The colors look great and I like that you got him eating bamboo. The textures of the fur really stand out well. I might blend in the green in the upper left corner a little more. I think the soft background colors look good.

A nicely exposed shot that holds good detail in both the black and white fur. The colors are fine and the composition is excellent, too bad the eyes are lost in those black spots.
