Are these two photos legit?

[Dan O'meara]

The fact that BRW is in pretty much the same position in both photographs is a very strong indicator the pics were taken seconds, and not minutes, apart.
Is that too obvious?

Where's Harold Norman in the Powell photo?....

Which photo most accurately depicts the action of a man who has just been alerted by the sound of gunshots?   Notice in the powell phot BRW is simply looking out of the window but in the Dillard Photo BRW has definitely become alarmed and is looking toward the sound of gunshots....  Which photo was taken first?

He can't be seen because of the angle the photo has been taken at.

Or maybe Norman has not been drawn to the window by the sound of gunshots in the Powell phot but he is alerted in the Dillard photo.

Maybe, but the point is that BRW's position in both pics strongly indicates there was only a matter of seconds between the two pics.

No, it doesn't  .......  However the countenance being expressed by the expression on his face definitely reveal which photo was taken BEFORE the gun fire.....and which photo was taken AFTER the gunshots....

Whatever you say, Walt.

I can't find mention of this anywhere [not that I've been looking long], but I can't be the first to point this out about the Powell photo.
Below is an extreme close-up of the SN window and the boxes forming the SN. Note, there is a box that is higher than the rest. To the left of this box as we look at it [to the west of the highest box], there are at least two stacks of boxes.



However, the picture below shows that there is only one stack of boxes to the west of the tallest box:



This is the same arrangement as we see today in the 6th floor museum:



Am I missing something really obvious because it looks to me that at least one stack of boxes is missing from the Sniper's Nest as pictured in the Powell photo?
