I disagree. The shadow of the traffic light pole indicates Baker is on the other side of it. Plus it appears to me that his helmet disappears behind the traffic light pole. I do believe the no parking sign pole is on the other side of Baker.



     Baker's head/helmet is consistently obscured by 2 people that are also in motion. This "three card monty" is deceiving to the eye. Officer Baker's boot is not obscured by anything. It even glistens in the sun for a couple of frames. Baker is clearly on the (R) of the traffic light pole.
     The motion of these 2 people is also why we need to be very careful with the placement of Fedora Man. Fedora Man is also moving around as Wiegman was filming this same general area. And Wiegman was panning his camera while filming from inside a moving car that was turning onto Elm St.
      As the JFK Limo passed by an eyewitness, and that eyewitness then could only see the back of JFK or Jackie, they generally began to move around. This is natural. By the time that Wiegman began filming Fedora Man, the JFK Limo was well down Elm St.

 Hold everything! ( No pun intended).  I'M WRONG, and ROYELL IS CORRECT.  Baker does pass in *front* of the traffic signal pole!  I am working on making a GIF of Marrion Baker, as seen in my copy of the Darnell film.  It's unmistakable that he is between Darnell's camera and the light signal pole.

I must have been looking at the wrong shadow then. The pole’s shadow appears to be very thin and easily missed. Thanks Steve and Royell.

Does it really matter which side of "the pole" Baker ran?

Isn't the important thing the fact that the Storing's Abandoned Getaway Car, a seventeen-and-a-half-foot-long 1958 Pontiac Bonneville -- with its distinctive rocket 'exhaust' delineated by two horizontal lines on the rear panel -- can be seen parked next to the island in several photographic images, including the Darnell clip and, about twenty-five seconds earlier in the Wiegman clip, and that in the latter it visually merges with a car that may be parked the wrong way on the other side of Elm Street Extension?

It matters to me primarily because I like learning how to interpret the photographic record more accurately. But I agree it seems mostly irrelevant to the discussion we were having before this question arose.

   STEVE - Knowing the quality of the JFK Assassination images that you posses and have access to, your observations and opinions hold great value. I wish you would come around here more often and raise the level of discourse with your observations and opinions. Your long experience with the JFK Assassination is invaluable.

  I totally disagree. I have discovered a car moving down the Elm St Ext at the same time that shots were being fired at JFK. This car is NOT on the Wiegman Film. Roughly 20 seconds later this car IS on the Couch and Darnell Films. This is NOT "minutia". It is Brand New!
  I have also proven that the Darnell and Martin Films do Not show Officer Haygood inside the Railroad Yard. The DPD motorcycle cop filmed with DPD Officer Harkness on the Darnell film is not Officer Haygood. The time stamping of these 2 DPD Cops being filmed together is alleged to be Before 12:35. Officer Haygood made a documented 12:35 police radio transmission from his motorcycle parked at the Elm St curb. DPD Officer Harkness made a documented 12:36 police radio transmission that he was transporting eyewitness Amos Euins to the TSBD. The timelines of Officer Haygood and Officer Harkness make it impossible for them to be filmed together on the Darnell film before 12:35. This is not "minutia". It is Brand New!

Even if all of this is true, what do you think it proves?
