Analyzing the “Photographic Evidence” of the Nanking Massacre

February in Nanking, even at the time of the meridian sun (noon) when the ratio is thesmallest (See Chart 2). The ratio is larger at all the other times and can never be largerthan 1.0. Thus, the location shown in this photograph cannot be Nanking at the time ofthe Japanese occupation or immediately there after.Judging from the clothing on the military men standing and the posture of thosesitting as shown in Photos 70-75, someone took them at the same location at the identicaltime. The servicemen’s attire and the background dose not suggest that the photos weretaken during the winter. Since none of the “16 Photos” in possession of the research teamare clear enough for analysis, Photo C, which appears in RON-YY, will be subjected toanalysis here. As the next section will discuss, Photo C was obviously taken at the samelocation as Photo 73 was.Photo 66 Photo 66: QINHUA, p. 46136
