Nov 26, Kathmandu- It has been revealed that the picture of the snow leopard taken in Nepal by Kittiya Pawlowski, an American photographer who gained popularity on social media, is a 'fake'.

Alpine International magazine claimed that during the 'fact check' of the photo, the fact that the picture of the snow leopard taken by Pawlowski in Nepal's Everest region was fake. Alpine International Magazine is a popular magazine run by experts in mountain life, nature, and photography. As stated in Fact Check, there is also doubt as to whether Pawlowski is a photographer or not.

It is mentioned in the fact check, "Generally, the same thing happens in the world of Himali photography (mountain photography). But a beginner photographer, a student photographer, may get a lucky chance to find such a scene. And Kittiya Pawlowski might even be lucky enough to find some snow leopard shots. Even after spending years in the Himalayas, some people can barely see a glimpse. But the problem lies in the nature of the pictures.

Their composition, light, is in their place. In other words, their truth lies in them. The problem is the nature of the pictures, their composition, the lighting, and their location. In other words, their authenticity is in question. According to the report, Pawlowski's photographs are excellent, but they are not natural and are mostly created using software such as Photoshop.

The magazine has also doubted the photographer's social network (Instagram). There are only 5 photos on the photographer's Instagram, 4 of which are of snow leopards and one is of her. Why are other galleries not seen?' the magazine has questioned. Fact Check has claimed and written, 'Pawlowski is an expert in using Photoshop.

She used the same expertise. Along with the publication of the photo of the snow leopard, the photo was also published on the official Facebook page of the American Embassy in Nepal. These photos went viral in Nepal.
