Snow Leopards - The ghost of the mountains

The snow leopard, known as the ghost of the mountains, is an elusive predator that has captured the human imagination for eons.

Ismail Shariff, one of those lucky enough to encounter one, speaks of the experience as momentous, transformative, even spiritual. #SnowLeopard, #Hemis, #WildArt.Works, #IsmailShariff, #Wildlife
