Yes, it does make it more obvious, but I still contend it’s not a slam dunk. His arm could be bent within that sleeve, so we might be seeing both part of the forearm and upper arm there. It doesn’t look right, but I’m not sure that the weirdness isn’t an illusion created by the garments. I do agree that it’s probably a fake, but I’m not sure that a jury could convict. > > -- > PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List > [email protected] > http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net > to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow > the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
