I recently watched a docuseries on Netflix (now restored in full color 😂) and in one of the episodes, they showed pictures of shadows etched into the ground? How is this possible? Aren’t shadows an absence of light? Did the ground in the surrounding area burn and change color making the shadow look like it was etched in?
