Tough shot to get with your available lighting. Some filler flash might have helped with some of the dark spots.

A nice animal. Too bad the lighting is so contrasty. NOt really showing much DoF.

Interesting shot..
I think you could have moved the subject out of the center of the frame in order to make this a little more dynamic. Movement to the left would probably have been best so the panda was looking into the frame.
I also don't don't think you leveraged Deep DOF as part of the composition. The foliage in front is in focus and it does help to frame the panda, but it's not a key element of the composition.

Lighting seems a bit dark and maybe hindering details as a result.

Focus is just a bit soft. Maybe a bit more light. I love Peonies and know how sticky they are. Good luck in the challenge.

The subject is the ants, they are not centered...nice shot though.
