Tuckered out! I think I've seen this panda before...recently. :)

To my eye, a tighter crop would have helped the composition. The limited depth of field is a good start, but there's a great deal of uncessary information here, in my opinion. The color feels washed out, perhaps setting black point or adjusting hue would make the panda's coat richer without lsing the detail in the fur.

This panda looks happy and lazy, not bored. This is a good stock picture of a panda, but it doesn't meet the challenge.

Eyes are closed. Asleep, not bored.
