Even with the leaves still on I think you'd be less visible if you just put a couple branches behind the thing to break your outline. Can you shoot a bow over that front rail? As far as leaves, if you've got some pines around a couple strategic pine bows(don't need a lot) would fill in and they hold their needles a long time..
