Horned Six-Tailed Mountain Beast

Create a hyper-realistic collectible wildlife photograph inspired by ancient Chinese myth: a fierce horned leopard-lynx hybrid, the {argument name="mythic beast" default="Zheng, a leopard-like mountain beast"}, standing on a jagged alpine rock ledge and roaring directly toward the camera. The creature has tawny-orange fur covered in dark leopard spots, a compact muscular feline body, lynx-like facial ruff and ears, one straight dark horn rising from the center of its forehead, and exactly six long ringed tails fanned upward behind it like a dramatic plume. Set the scene in a harsh high-mountain mineral landscape with dark fractured slate-gray cliffs, cold mist, and scattered translucent blue-green crystal formations embedded in the rocks. Use a low telephoto wildlife-photography angle from slightly below the animal, placing the beast left of center on the ledge, with the rocky slope and crystals receding into a blurred mountainous background. Lighting should be cinematic natural dawn light from the upper left, cool blue-gray atmosphere with warm rim highlights on the fur, visible breath-like mist, sharp detail on the animal’s face, open mouth, teeth, whiskers, spots, paws, horn, and tails, with shallow depth of field and realistic texture. Style: top-tier National Geographic fantasy realism, physically plausible anatomy and fur, no illustration look, no painting, no text, no humans, no watermark. Use a {argument name="camera lens" default="85mm telephoto lens"}, {argument name="lighting mood" default="cold misty dawn with warm side light"}, and {argument name="image aspect ratio" default="4:3 landscape"}.
