While study some Z Frames i stumbled over a reddish spot on Police Officer's Hargis windshield.
In earlier Zapruder Frames the windshield is clean as it should be but it apperently appears first in Z#319. Take a close look at the windshield please.
The question is, what can it be?
A portion of brain tissue which is skid to the windshield causing from a shot from the front? Or a reflection in the windshield caused from the brake lights of the presidential limousine? Or just a light abberation although i doubt it?
Gif Animation's tends to erase image informations, because of that i attached a quicktime movie additional.
Hargis told he was sprayed with blood after the fatal head shot as far as i know. Brain tissue on his windshield would support his story.

We can rule out a reflection of the brake lights, because the limo's brake lights never came on. I seriously doubt that blood spatter would appear that intense and distinct. I don't think it was reflection. I think it was refraction. What you are seeing is a refraction through his windshield of the red waggle light on his bike. If you look at earlier films as in the DCA films of the motorcade coming down Main Street you can see the cycles with their waggle lights flashing. In fact I think someone wrote a paper about calculating film running speeds from the known flasher rates on the cycles. I would also add the caveat that new researchers have to be very careful when looking at images in the sprocket hole area to know which part of the image is being exposed with the current frame and which parts came from the areas above and below the current frame height as double exposures.
