I´m new here and just noticed this attached photo of tiger family. I wonder what do you guys think about the trees on background? There seems to be a pattern which recur too often, certain trees there all the time in same order, then some minor differences.... maybe someone used a little bit photoshopping but too lazy to do enough?

That just doesn´t look natural even though fine looking tigers. I am not sure if that photo now is visible or not, just learning how this site works....

Your observation is correct. That images is a panorama of multiple seperate camera-trap images. As each member of the family passed the spot, they got themselves clicked.

What I find odd, that there is snow on that one branch, it is there above the head of the adult male and then when that third cub is there. Female and 2 other cubs doesn´t have it there. And that snow is in the exactly same spot, so it makes me wonder if those photos are really taken at same time. If that would be something on the lens of camera, how come in exactly same place in with two tigers... and if that would be snow on the branch and tigers walking in this order, it should be really in every photo. 

I can´t be sure of course, but for me that looks like, that those tigers maybe haven´t been walking there in so same time as photo makes it look like. Or at least not in that order because male and last cub have that different thing there. Maybe a little thing and someone just have wanted to place tiger to this order for some reason :) I mean maybe tigers walked like this, but male tiger in reality walked behind that last cub.... then that snow on that branch would be logical to be in exactly same place. There are just so many fake photos about different things, that when seeing something special I happen to look closer to details. Reply
