That is easily solved by looking at a capture from the beginning of this month, where indeed, the disclaimer is absent:

I think the point is she wasn't explicitly presenting them as authentic, in which case whether or not the disclaimer is there originally is irrelavent.

They were and still are presenting them as actual photos

>Squinting through my camera’s telephoto lens, I noticed something in the shadow of Mount Pumori. At first I thought it was a rock, but it was exactly what I was looking for.

You can create photo montages from actual photos you took.

In that way her description would still reflect reality. Or are you claiming she didn’t photograph a snow leopard?

Does she claim anywhere that she did? As far as I can tell she only claims that she took photos in Nepal that she later touched up to her hearts content.

They describe it as taking photo of snow leopard.

I am claiming that her descriptions are at least highly misleading and apparently formed to technically avoid stating false info, while lying.
