Yes, you misunderstand my suggestion of imagining the position of the poles.
Imagine the sun is behind you. In front of you approximately thirty feet apart are two 100' poles. You are standing on the midline of the poles
Do you think the shadow of the poles will appear to
a) diverge
b) stay parallel
c) converge.
David, vertical shadows will always appear to converge on the vanishing point whether it is towards the sun or away from the sun as the viewer stands.
I have shown you a number of photos which show this. You have yet to show me one where the shadows do not converge when the sun is behind the viewer.
