One strange observation is how the pandas could have been allowed to roam much more. The facility is gigantic.

And all they do is eat. (And roll around and sleep.)

They are nonetheless lovable, and it is good to see animals well taken care off.

An icon of China, it contrasts against the strength that the country seeks. Would the species have survived if it did not become an icon?

A mainstay attraction of Chengdu is its Giant Pandas. Here's a short series over the next few days.

A close-up of a face-changing artist shows how the mask disappears into the collar. Once a mystery, now unmasked by high FPS cameras with pre-capture.

Defying pain and showcasing strength is another theme. This was had to be heavily cropped but the sensor showed its strengths.

A different place and production. This is the Fantasy Emei show at Xiangcheng Grand Theatre. Dancers emerging from fog evokes intrigue.

Red and yellow are not exactly go-to complements, but it works well here in the afterlife scene.

Darkening a scene does so much to add intrigue. A well-trained goat and its handler takes center stage in this scene.

Huanglong terraces' side profile shows of a temporarily barren tree which has caught sunlight just at the right angle.

The pinnacle of Huanglong is its terraces that reflect different colours due to light. It is worth the hike up 3000m.

A pen of Yaks is partially hidden amidst this dreamy landscape. A phrase that kept ringing in my ear during this journey was - "F8 and be there".
