    Dear all
    Taken at Darjeeling conservation centre. I personally dont like to shoot in Zoo/Conservation centers but you dont get this buddy in Jungles. Expected population of 48 only in Jungles of NE India. Highly endangered and brutally killed in China for fur & tail. ( Ref Wikid )

    Nikon D300 with 300MM/F2.8 at F4 ISO 200 1/250 secs.cropped for composition

    C & C most welcome

    Harshad:

    We have a couple of Red Pandas in our local zoo. I have always found them intriguing.

    My biggest concern with the image is that the blacks in the chest/legs are almost completely blocked.

    It was a high contrast scene, and the camera couldn't hold the wide dynamic range.

    Fill flash, if allowed, would have helped even it out.

    Thanks for posting!

    Fill flash is not allowed in India

    Very interesting animal, if you cropped, maybe getting some more on the left would be an option?
