A Fresh Start

Almost forgot

One last puzzle pic for you.

If that’s my shadow¹ and that’s my Kodak out in front of me¹ … how did I take this photo then?

It’s a humdinger of a puzzler, isn’t it?

¹ and it is

YOU took it? With THAT camera? How?

Em3: Yes, I took it. and was alone at the time.

Would have been more convincing if you’d set the timer on the second camera and held your hands out in front of you.

Em3: Shhhhhh - you’re giving the game away! But you’re quite right, it would.

Oh, and I was going to suggest aliens.

Superimposition? Or something?

Em3: There was a BIG CLUE in The Bishop’s comment, Croila.

I reckon you lined up a passing lamp-post to represent the front of the camera. Or used an Ellisons see-backroscope which only senior togs will remember!

Em3: Well, I’d never heard of an Ellisons see-backroscope before (I understand it’s some sort of mirrored spectacles that effectively provide you with pedestrian wing mirrors). I don’t really see how this would help in the photo, though. As you well know, Mr Mulbo, there are no lamp-posts on the beach at Wells-next-the-Sea. My money’s on The Bishop’s suggestion that there was a second camera, perhaps held carefully so that it did not appear in the silhouette.

Well it could be the square bit sticking out the left side of your head (enlarge it and you’ll see what I mean)- you didn’t have square ears last time I saw you!

Em3: No, that must be my spectacles. It’s definitely not a camera - that’s not where I was holding it.
