Synopsis

Panda is a unique and intimate portrait of one of the world’s best-loved animals. The extraordinary lives of the giant panda are captured throughout the seasons in their remote mountain habitat. The selection of over 200 remarkable pictures shows pandas feeding, resting, playing, climbing trees and even sliding down snowy slopes, as well as showcasing the misty peaks and snow-clad forests of the beautiful Sichuan Province of China.

A charming portfolio of panda images from multi-award winning photographer and former president of the Royal Photographic Society, Heather Angel. Heather’s passion for pandas is conveyed in beautiful colour photographs that show the pandas throughout the seasons in their natural habitat. The images are accompanied by engaging and informative text giving an insight into the way of life of an iconic animal. There is even a chapter on the giant panda’s lesser-known red cousin, the red panda.

The giant panda oozes charm and charisma and is loved the world over. Who could fail to be captivated by this uniquely endearing animal, with its large, friendly face and eyes that are exaggerated by black eye patches? Yet it is now so rare that very few people have seen one in the wild. Panda will give you an insight into why pandas have become flagship species in the world of conservation.
