Over the years, Sherry and I have seen and photographed a number of leopards in trees. Normally this is an issue due to the foliage. Not this time. This leopard was photographed between croc Bridge an Lower Sabi about 3kms before the causeway. the tree is about 150 to 200 meters off the road. As you can see this is a dead tree with zero foliage. The photos shown here are first an unmodified (cropped only) and then three with the background altered. The question for you is as the day was overcast with a poor background is it OK to enhance a photo by changing the background? A second question, as we took a couple of hundred photos of this cat including some video as he/she descends would you like to see more and if so with modified background or the way it was cropped or not?
