[Tutor] Pasting an image with transparency

I am trying to automate some photo processing by pasting a
sig or watermark. The sig image is a .png with transparency
but when it pastes it does so with a black background. Is there
a way to paste with transparency?



from PIL import Image
from PIL import ImageEnhance

fname = "sample.jpg"

im = Image.open(fname)
print(im.format, im.size, im.mode)

out = im.resize((1068, 712))

enh = ImageEnhance.Sharpness(out)
enh = enh.enhance(2.5)

sig = 
Image.open("/home/tvbare/pics/recent_pics/sigs/opi_sig_landscape.png")
print(sig.format, sig.size, sig.mode)
box = (768, 616, 1018, 662)
enh.paste(sig, box)

enh.show()
