"Ray - if you want to claim those shadows work and are consistent with a same image, vanishing point shadow convergence... I think you're wrong.
I said in an earlier post "that what you say about the shadows converging too quickly could be right. I am not arguing that. (It may well be due to the camera angle and perspective) As I said earlier I think the photos are fake. Just that you think you have solved the mystery when you haven't."
"I think we should see a nice, dark post shadow laying in exactly the same angle from the post as the Oswald shadow is to Oswald."
That is not what you proposed in the opening post. You showed shadows which diverged. I pointed out that shadows never diverge.
I will repeat that due to perspective, sun shadows of vertical objects will converge whether the camera is facing the sun or away from the sun.
If you disagree with this, then we have no need for further discussion.
