Hi, so far I've done nothing with this photo. Notice that the shadows behind the wedding cake are distinct and that there must be a wall behind the cake. Also the flash was taken from the photographers right side. My concern is a half shadow on the right side of the photo. Is this a shadow or some kind or an artifact.  |

Is this a shadow or some kind or an artifact. Hi Phil: It looks like the left rear corner of a table/tablecloth tight against the wall. If it were an artifact, it seems as though the cake and candle in front of it would be less distinct. |

I agree with Terry. It's a table with cloth. If the cake were jammed against the wall, the shadows would be smaller and sharper.  |

I'm with all of you that it's an object that should be there, but it seems at an odd angle to be a table. Could it be a package resting at an angle on a table and leaning against the wall? I'm not sure, because there appears to be a draping effect at the lower left of whatever it is, and that would belie a package. Or maybe it's a package on a table? Where's the shadow? Where should it be? Maybe I'll go get ready for work. Good luck, Phil!

While it looks to me like a blanket draped over the back of a chair, a table makes more sense. Are there any reference photos with another view?

Just wondering about this. This is the very top of the main wedding cake. It looks like a ring and the question is are there flowers wrapped around the top of the ring or is all of this stuff on the top an artifact?   |

Phil it definitely looks like a twist of flowers on the top. Here's the blue channel.  |

Plus the shadow shows there's SOMETHING up there. Dunno what.
