For this one I replaced the background with a texture. I did this using layers and layer masks in Photoshop, laying the texture under a duplicate of the image and then putting a reveal layer mask on that. I then erased or revealed down the the texture around the monkey and the branch he was sitting on. To make the masking easier and the selection more natural looking, I re-toned the texture to the tones of the natural background which went from a greenish gray to browns.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
