Hi Chris, I think it might be more productive for you to study the three horizontal shadow lines which cross the vertical stair post. These are supposedly the shadows of telegraph wires alongside the house. Assuming that the lines truly show these, how come they move so much down the post, in the short time that Marina allegedly took the photos.
The highest three lines are in C1333A showing that it must have been taken earlier than the rest, when the sun was higher in the sky. Try to calculate how much distance there is between the three lots of shadows and see how much time there must have been for them to have moved that far. Also compare Oswald's shadow in all three compared to where the sun would have been to have caused the shadows of the power lines.
I believe this could be these shadow lines could blow the theory that the photos are genuine.
Just a thought.
Keep up the good work.
Regards
Ray

Hi Ray, I have done a study of those shadows and found some surprises. First it is not the lines that run down the West side of the ally. The angle of the Sun from 3pm to 430pm shows the shadow would have to have been made by lines that are way down the ally. 75 feet from Oswald. The elevation of the sun shows that a 40 foot pole casts a shadow 26 feet long, so it cannot be a shadow of those lines. Very confusing till I found an old photo showing lines that ran right next to the house on the same side of the ally. Those lines were on an approx 30 foot pole with no crossbar. It ran to the backyard of the house behind Oswald. The angle and shadow length match so I assume they must be the lines shadowed in the photo. I also was wondering why those shadows move faster than all the other. The reason is it is the longest shadow. I took the distance of the shadow times 2 time 3.14 and divided the result by 360. It turns out the shadow should move about 4 inches per degree and the elevation changed by 1.6 degrees every ten minutes. So the shadows moved about 6 inches up the 2x4 pole which represents about 7 minutes between the 1st and last photo. So it seems to make sense that the shadows move as they do, and why the other shadows do not move. The total change of elevation is about one degree or less so we might not be able to see it.
Still I think the backyard photo's may be faked. Even the head being pasted into the photo may be true even if they got the nose shadow right. I am looking at Oswald's lean now. I found a way to test the stance without having to duplicate the entire posture. It seems so far that the only way to duplicate it is to turn the right knee and foot way out and also be able to hyperextend the knee to get that weird 10 degree angle of the right femur as it angles out from the lower leg. Oswalds right foot is at about an 18 degree angle and I carefully measured the hip angle and he is almost straight forward. The hips are at about a 6 degree angle from the camera. I think it may be impossible to keep those two parameters and still lean so far, still testing it with my nephew who can hyper extend his kneeThat is why i posted recently asking about Oswald maybe having a minor case of knock knee. I did a video on it(below), you may have already seen it from my post a few weeks ago
The final bit of weirdness I am looking at right now is the Sun's reflection of the tip of his left shoe. It is actually slightly to the right of center and the Sun is to the left. That is truly interesting, we will see.
