I assume the Medieval "photographers" popped down to the Turin One-Hour Foto shop and picked up some silver nitrate, stop bath and fixer solutions before performing their feat. I also assume that of all the numerous examples of this 'very common' art, it is mere coincidence that a shroud...err...photo accurately depicting a crucified man survived until the 21st century. Oh, that's right....those Catholic buggers are devious and cunning, aren't they? Why, just look at them: burning at the stake anyone who dared think outside of the box and maintain the Earth revolved around the Sun, or who cured the sick with natural herbs. Why, those Catholic buggers were/are so hypocritical and Satanic, they'd fake a crucifiction shroud of the Christ for politico-religious reasons.
Gimme a physical break!

John 20 6-7
6 Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie,
7 And the napkin that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself.

Is'nt the shroud 1 piece?
Supposedly used to wrap the whole body and head , if so it can't be the one used for the Christ.
