Love it! And they can't blame Bush either.

Tall skinny things, aren't they? I guess that exposes less of their surface area to the noon-day sun. Cool.

This picture was faked. Look in the bottom left corner. The shadow goes all the way over one of the camels but the camel is covered in sunshine????

Trevor, get a grip. It is all due to the angle of the frikkin sun. If you stand next to me towards the sun, your shadow may cover some of me but if the sun is at the 2 o'clock position and assuming you are not 7' tall, I will still get the sun in my eyes and enough sun will reflect off my thinning scalp to be seen from the camera directly above us. This isn't a Reuteurs photo, dude. Nice try though.

TC,good explanation.
Where the picture makes complete sense from that angle,maybe you can explain why most the shadows seem to be faintly outlined in white.Something to do with the stark contrast of light and dark perhaps?

About Kate

Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.

This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio - "You don't speak for me."
