The facts suggest 3 different photographs shot on 2 different cameras.
1 mobile phone digital camera with electronic flash and 1 film camera using
daylight negative film with fill in electronic flash. (Please see Fig.6.)
Maxwell’s photograph was taken with a 35 mm film camera.
Andrews photograph was taken with a mobile phone camera. The thick black
edge where Andrews face meets the white background is caused by cutting
Andrew out of a black background and pasting him onto a white background;
this cannot be avoided, only improved by cutting closer to the face.
Giuffre’s photograph was also shot on a mobile phone camera. By enlarging
a section of the skin on Giuffre’s arm the grain and shadow suggests an
outside shot, also in the dark. Where Giuffre has been cut out of a dark
background her arm displays a thick dark unnatural line once it is overlaid
on Maxwell’s white sweater.
If this was a straight shot with Andrew so close to the white back wall there
would be a hard dark shadow of his outline. (Please see Fig. 7.)
