The notion of ‘her hand is in a shadow’ is a complete and total CROCK. THERE IS NO SHADOW THERE, never was and never will be. Study the little girl in the shadows and grandpa’s right hand then tell me ‘Ann’s hand’ is in a shadow. It’s broad daylight with the light coming from the front! What you REALLY have to wonder is why is this photo tweaked to be so faded on Obama’s Facebook page so you’ll not notice this alteration?
Think ~ interior lighting with a flash assist ~ there you have it. This isn’t outdoors.
