Oswald took 10.2 seconds to fire all three shots.

Is there a way to see the limo from Oswald's perspective at frames 122-24?  Just curious what the shot would have looked like if fired in that timeframe.

I'm guessing somewhere about the 10:18 mark in the above film. Something like below (taken from the window).

It's the middle photo.

Maybe you can post it here for us.

If you're suggesting by the way you cropped the photo that the bullet may have hit the traffic signal's mast or light box thingy, all I can say is that it doesn't matter to me if it did or not because the important thing is that, whether the shot was fired at "Z-124" or at Max Holland's "Z-107," it was a steeply-downward-angled shot that necessitated Oswald's standing and awkwardly leaning forward while firing it -- which in itself helps to explain how he managed to miss everything with it.

   Why would someone in the sniper's nest even attempt to contort their body and fire this alleged shot through a half open window? If you buy into a shot coming at this point in time, it would be evidence of a 2nd shooter. "Almost on the horizontal" per "The Men Who Killed Kennedy".

Probably because he realized that the foliage of the oak tree would soon block his view of the target, and the temptation was just too doggone great.

Factoid: He didn't have to subject himself to tortuous "contortion." All he had to do was lean forward a bit while standing.

I’m not suggesting (or cropping) anything. That’s simply a screenshot of the middle photo from the pdf. Due to the resolution of my iPad and the limitations of the design of this forum, it might be larger in size (resolution) than your browser window. Just scroll left/right or up/down as needed and the full image is there. I only have an issue with Max Holland’s idea of standing to shoot and whether or not the shot was intentional or inadvertent. The timing of an early missed shot is open for debate. Some folks don’t even believe that there was an early shot. The article you linked to is interesting and I believe that it should be considered.
