The Bronx Zoo has an astonishing exhibit of snow leopards. They have closed off a rocky outcropping with a net that is almost not noticeable, so you seem to be creeping up on these creatures. Behind you is another netted off area with their prey. It's netted off from them as well.
I did this from a photo taken on a cold winter day and the light looks to me just like that. The blue I used is Prussian Blue. His tail and right leg look like they belong to a stuffed animal, but that's the way they look!
