This is from Life Magazine, November 29, 1963. And, it seems to me, that even then, and right away, people should have noticed that the picture looks posed.
I know people haven't studied Ophthalmology, but they know from common experience, that when someone is rushing in from the side, that you do see them with your peripheral vision, and you automatically glance at them. It's like a reflex. So, how could "Ruby" get so far without Graves, and even Oswald, turning their head and looking at him? And even "Ruby" doesn't look right for what he is supposed to be doing, which is shooting a man to death. He looks so relaxed. It seems like he would look more visibly tense. And in Graves' case, "Ruby" was close enough to him that he would have felt the disturbance in the air from "Ruby"- the wind from his rushing in. Also, he was close enough to sense that there was a warm object moving in. It's just impossible for Graves not to have detected Ruby before he got that far. And as Amy Joyce has pointed out, the gun isn't even pointed right to where the entrance wound was. I think it was very childish of people then to accept this a bonafide image of a shooting. And, I think it is even more childish of them to accept it today.
