In re: the photo, I don't see a shadow from the soldier or the weaponry that matches the shadow from the soldier on the right. Anyone else?
You're right...
You are more observant than I am...
Also notice the boot size of the right foot (stage left) that sticks out under the guardrail?
There are either one or two more of the whatever he's holding on the ground to the right. I do see a slight shadow near his right leg. Dontcha wish you could google a photo...not it's url but the actual pic?
Good catch...there is no shadow from the weapon but there is from the rail in front and the tank behind.
