Those Front Steps

[John Mytton]

Thanks for the summation John. I've seen your graphics on this. My eye for photographic analysis is abysmal. As is my understanding of it. I'm not in a minority though. Alan means well, I'm sure. But he's way out of his league on this. I'm reminded of the lengthy thread here on "Will Fritz standing on the paper sack". There were a few who were adamant that the photo showed Fritz standing right where the paper bag was reported to have been found. They honestly believed it because they didn't know any better. It's understandable. However, you were eventually able to get through to them. Through repetitive explanation and patience.

I forgot about the Fritz standing on the bag thread, but the difference is those CTs wanted to learn whereas Ford and Storing think they're instant experts but unfortunately they havn't done the miles to know any difference, I do feel sorry for them..

115 pages? Can somebody give me the Reader's Digest version of this thread?

Happy to, Mr Nickerson!

Mr Lee Harvey Oswald was standing just behind Mr Billy Lovelady at the time of the assassination:

Enough of the diversions, I'm not going to do your research.

 

Oh but I did my research, Mr Mytton---------you, on the other hand, goofed up big-time again! 

Because of the extreme angle of your "required" shadow, unless the landing is now 20 feet deeper there isn't going to be much of a change. Here I drastically reduced the depth of the landing and the shadow line is still near the center.

There are not enough laughter emojis in the world to do justice to the hilarity of this latest Soopah-Doopah-Mytton-Misrepresentation!

Shall we give Mr Mytton a chance to edit out this 'unfinished graphic', friends? I mean, even his Lone Nutter pals must be looking at this one through their fingers!

The real issue is

Funny how this had suddenly become "the real issue" until you realised your gaffe! You poor man, you thought you actually had something there! 

According to you, Mr Mytton, it proved all my claims wrong...



Now, friends, look at the door and the shadow here in Mr Speer's photograph:



Imagine the door coming closer to the camera as the landing shrinks in depth. What do you get?

Well, two things:

1. Mr Mytton with yet more egg on his face as he realizes that Mr Speer's photograph indeed bears out Messrs Stancak and Hackerott's placement of the shadow line! 

2. Mr. Mytton scrambling---------as predicted----------to create yet another shamelessly misleading visual (right image) to salvage the situation! 



Poor Mr Mytton-------------a one-trick magician whose one trick has been exposed to all and sundry!

Mr Nickerson, is this your way of saying "I want to show solidarity with my fellow Lone Nutter here but please don't ask me to play because I know I'll end up incinerated like him"?

Looks a bit different when the handrail is (roughly) photoshopped out of the photo.

(~Snippety snip-snip!~) painted in a mathematically accurate shadow in less than 7 hours (~Snippety snip-snip!~)

Where are you getting 7 hours from, Mr Mytton?

That's because you've increased the shadow cover, Mr Mitcham.

Try just erasing the handrail shadow and leaving the rest alone!
