I see the figure clapping his hands. The line down his back is not a camera strap. It extends almost straight down the center of the back, goes below the belt/waistline and down to the crotch. No camera strap would do this. I also see a suited man, wearing a hat, somewhere on the other side of Elm St. This man is being mistaken as being something in the lap of the figure sitting on the pedestal.
Dear Stormtrooper Storing,
The strap goes almost straight down because Euins was quite short.
You can see a shiny spot (not the really bright spot which is the sunlight shining through) on the camera's leather case which is lying semi-suspended behind him on the pedestal.
The thing in his lap may very well be his "pork pie" hat.
