The gifs are great...

The Allen photo (and Powell photo) seems less steep of a perspective... than Dillard...

I can see how the boxes might not show up in Dillard...

Some of you are so well-read in these matters, you might have seen this before... but this adds a little wrinkle to the “boxes in the window” discussion... Very interesting... This Congressional Committee made the determination that the boxes were moved in the interval between the Dillard and Powell photographs (see para #270 below)... Interesting...

The following is from:
Investigation of the Assassination of President John F. Kennedy / Volume 6
By United States. Congress. House. Select Committee on Assassinations (1979)

The source for the following is linked below the quote (JFK.hood.edu....) I’m not certain if this is from the Committee report, but it does seem to summarize and conclude on the same note...:

A look at the U.S. Naval Observatory's data for Dallas, TX at 12:30pm on 11/22/63 shows the exact position of the sun:

#declare alt[ 383]=  37.0 ; #declare azimuth[ 383]= 184.9;#declare time[ 383]= "12:30"

Simple trigonometry shows that with the clear weather and the height and orientation of the windows, that the boxes in question, in the article you posted, would be lit by the sunshine. I don't know why the study didn't take all of the factors into consideration. It appears that they make some assumptions that are entirely incorrect.

Here's an image using my 3D virtual model with the sun located properly for 12:30pm on 11/22/63. This is from just west of the sniper's nest looking east into the nest. This should give you a rough idea of the situation. And yes, I have verified the sun position is correct.

Exactly.  So what's the excuse, Nutters?  Is this another case of the HSCA photo panel being right, except when they are not?

Maybe the photos show slightly different perspectives.
Do you really think? Maybe one was taken with a drone... The other with a 20 foot tripod.
Which one do you like the most?

If you think they were right, show us. Otherwise, you are just being your usual self and contributing nothing of substance.

What are you suggesting happened?  That fantasy conspirators rushed into action in the moments after the assassination to move around some boxes then made their escape down the bat pole to the bat cave?

Is there any photo evidence of the actual “sniper nest setup” from the inside of the 6th floor after 12:30pm, November 22, 1963?
Did the Warren Commission have any photos used in their investigation/documentation of this setup?
