TSBD Doorway man - Oswald or Lovelady?

[Albert Doyle]

Shade is shade. If shade from the lintel causes the t-shirt to darken without obliterating the margins of it, without making the material vanish, why should it be any different for the chin-shade?

You're obviously a moron. Because the lintel is a solid object it can only produce one type of shade. In an over-contrasted photo this variety of shade is clearly seen in the blackened-out areas in the portal. This area and the area that is obliterated on Black Tie Man and Raised Arms Man is the clear dividing line for the lintel shade that I've already elaborated to you at length in another discussion. So the Altgens shot already defines what is lintel shade and what isn't.

Your input is inherently moronic because, from what you write, you obviously don't even understand your own arguments. Not only that, I asked you to please answer my specific points in my previous post and you return with yet another cross-eyed evasive filibuster of incoherent crap. The answer to your confused nonsense above is that the lintel shade is registered as creating total darkness in Altgens as seen in the photo. Your reference to lightly shaded areas as being lintel shade is incorrect, hence everything you wrote is invalid AND you once again fail to answer my coherent points. You are using this bullshit to avoid answering my points. The answer to your craziness above (as was clear before) is that the shade from the lintel is not causing the coloration in the "sliver". It is not shaded at all as I made clear and you ignored. For you to return with an answer that ignores this and claims it is shaded is an actionable violation of site rules that should be acted upon. In other forums what you are doing is commonly called "trolling". You are just re-entering retarded input as a form of crude obfuscation exactly because you can't answer my points.

And even if it were true that chin shade could have that effect- which I say it can't- what are the chances that the shape of the chin-shade would conform so perfectly to what was needed to make a round t-shirt look vee? Aren't you being presumptuous? For instance, it could have undershot or overshot or been offset in some way. But, in this case, according to you, the shadow fell in such a way as to exactly duplicate Oswald's vee-necked t-shirt that he wore that day. Wouldn't that be another amazing coincidence?

You haven't answered my previous points. Your intellectually delinquent diversions do not serve as a credible answer to what I wrote. This is now the second time you have flagrantly avoided answering a very simple question. I will put that question again:


What is the explanation for the difference between the coloration seen in the sliver and the coloration of the "V" area? Why is the sliver lighter-colored and the V area darker?


"Shade is shade" is not a credible or acceptable answer and your evasive counter that a chin shadow could not make a perfect "V" is not a credible replacement. The chin shadow obviously could make a perfect "V" because it is doing it right there in front of you as my differential argument that you couldn't answer proves. In fact the argument that the angles and surfaces involved were not capable of making a perfect "V" is not valid.


My question was posed in a very specific technical way that was clearly put. Either answer it according to those terms or concede.
