    hya's,
    Well first off this has to be the cutest animal I've ever seen, ever beats the fox that comes around my house (fox set on flickr).
    I went to the zoo last week this guy is a red panda and of course their endangered, so on with the photo's.
    Number 1 was taken with all the wrong settings, but I liked his expression, is it too dark and blurry ? any idea's on how to "save it", i.e. B&W, artsy PS ?
    I won't say what I think of the others, dont want to put my thoughts in your heads ;)

    Thanks

    like 1 and 2. 1 as it is - i'm sure it can be improved, a little sharpness on the critter him/herself maybe. i'd give the straight raw one a miss lol ;)

    prefer 1 and 2 than 3 and 4.

    Thanks Valentia, I had a few versions like that, but the noise was getting to me and the sharpening on the front of his face above his eye's and in between his ears drove me nuts, I ran "remove noise" and even tried NoiseNinja as well, but i still couldn't get it to "look" right.

    I wouldn't bother with it only I love the look on his face, I'll try again tomorrow :rolleyes:

    Here's another one, not a great photo but I like it

    Great shots love the second one, maybe try a hdr on the dark one or 3 exposures and get an average?
