changes to or in photos

Hello
I would be grateful for some help with this sentence

By spotting changes to/in the satellite photographs of an area taken regularly over a period of time they were able to see how much the area had changed

I'm not sure which is correct, to or in

"Changes to" would imply someone had altered the photos, whereas "changes in" would mean differences between photos. The second would seem more likely in this case.
