How Did Connally Turn Around?

[LR Trotter]

Mr Blenner, I would be very surprised to learn that the JFK limousine jump seats were turnable. An area I have some concern about is the size of Texas Governor John B Connally during frames where he appears to be turning, as in some frame(s) he appears smaller than others. I never noticed any difference while viewing the film in motion, only in later years when I was able to look at individual frames on the internet. I try to always remind myself that I am not looking at people in any film or photograph, only images. There may be a logical reason, due to imaging, or I could be wrong.

[size=12]I have a problem with the turning shown on Z223/Z224 and Z224/Z225. These rotations are not preceded by a gradual acceleration nor followed by a gradual deceleration. In other words the film presents a snap, second derivative of acceleration, of the torso which requires two separate external forces acting about one eighteenth second apart.

I also note that a spectator on the north peristyle exhibits a humanly impossible motion of their arm on Z223/Z

In particular the arm rotates from their side by about sixty degrees without producing a massive motion blur.

When looking at the Altgens Photograph, JBC appears more to the center of the limousine than in Zfilm, at least to me. So maybe what I see is just an image issue. But, on the other hand if those Zfilm frames have been altered, the turning could be part of an alteration that also effected the sizing. Just my observation, and I am not sold either way regarding any Zfilm alteration possibilities. And again, Robert Groden need not be concerned about any photography "expertise" on my part.
