One of the funniest features from my Mad magazine collection was The Shadow Knows. If I recall correctly, it was done by Sergio Aragones, and involved cartoons of people in different situations. In each picture, the people’s shadows were drawn to represent the people’s true colors or feelings. For instance, a man is drawn walking with his wife and looking straight ahead as they pass an attractive woman. His shadow is turning back and ogling the woman.
I say all of this by way of introduction to this AP photo of a neo palestinian youth, which hints to the culture of death:
Meanwhile, here’s a picture of Jimmy Carter, which, although technically does not involve a shadow, achieves the same result as a previous Shadow Knows post.
