Challenge: I am the Walrus (Advanced Editing VII*)
Camera: Nikon D810
Lens: Nikon AF Zoom-Nikkor 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6D ED VR
Location: Philadelphia Zoo

 My family could not understand the urgency of going to the Zoo early in the day. I knew these folks would be hiding somewhere in the shade if sun was already high up. We managed getting there by 11am and out of the four red pandas there were only two active. Of course out of two neighboring enclosures, they were in the one with wire fence and not in the other photo-friendly one. I missed quite some 'cleaner' shots than this because of slightly off manual focusing. I like the expression though and the clutter sort of reflects my work desk...:-)

A pensive, contemplating life kind of redpanda. Such a cute photo. I wish that green sprig wasn't there so I could have an unobstructed view.

Nice laid-back "self portrait"! (PS - I really like your "in the spotlight" kitty shot in your portfolio - great catch!)

This is sweet. The panda has an adorable face. I gave it a 6, and would have scored it higher if you would have cloned the greenery off the panda.
