Snow Leopard in snowstorm

Beautiful and inspiring to me. It's one of my dreaming shots - a snow leopard in the falling snow, deep winter, without visible fences on the photo. It looks like Salzburg zoo is a good place to try.

Salzburg (Austria) and Zurich (Switzerland) may be two of the best places to try. Basel (Switzerland) also has snow leopards in a not as good enclosure (based on photos - I have not seen that one in person).

Yes, Zurich is a great place to photograph them. Unfortunately, I was shortly after a death of their famous female Dshamilja and I also didn't see a male.
A day before I was in Basel and could say that the exhibition is quite good 'photographically' but rocks look a little bit artificial. It was worse than Zurich's one, however still better than some other european enclosures.

When travelling Europe have you been to Karlsruhe? I saw on photographs that they could have a really nice snow leopard enclosure.

I have not been to Karlsruhe. Is that in Germany?

Yes, Karlsruhe is located near Stuttgart and Heidelberg. I discovered this zoo when I saw a photo of snow leopards' enclosure and thought it would be quite nice to photograph the cats there.

Also, Leipzig has a very nice snow leopard enclosure.

@Neva I looked at the Karlsruhe photo and notice that I had commented on it when it was first posted. I just forgot.

Yes, Leipzig has a very nice one . I'm impressed with how they deal with the design such a good exhibit on not so big area.
