Snow Leopard at First Light on a High Plateau
─────────────────────────────────────────────

PROMPT
A snow leopard mid-stride across a frozen high-altitude plateau at first light, head turned toward the camera, breath vapour catching the low golden sun. Individual guard hairs and the rosette pattern rendered in full detail, frost crystals clinging to the fur around the muzzle, powdered snow lifting from the paw. Shot on a 600mm telephoto at f/5.6 from a great distance, heavily compressed background of blue-grey mountain ridges falling out of focus in atmospheric layers. Natural wildlife photography, no human presence, cold blue shadows against warm sunlit fur, ultra detailed, 8k, National Geographic quality.

NEGATIVE PROMPT
zoo enclosure, fence, collar, human hands, cartoon, cgi look, deformed anatomy, extra legs, flat lighting, oversharpened, watermark, text, unnatural pose, plastic fur

RECOMMENDED SETTINGS
Midjourney: --ar 3:2 --style raw --v 7 --s 150
Flux: guidance 4, 34 steps (best fur detail)
SDXL: CFG 6.5, 40 steps + wildlife LoRA at 0.4
Upscale 2× maximum — fur is where hallucination shows first.

CAPTION
Wildlife realism = guard hairs + breath vapour ❄️🐆

And a long lens. Always say the focal length — 600mm compresses the mountains behind the subject and that's what sells the distance.
