In article <5110@dftsrv.gsfc.nasa.gov>, packer@amarna.gsfc.nasa.gov (Charles Packer) writes... >have short segments shifted cleanly to the left at a point It was with acute chagrin that I realized later that the effect was caused not by a shift to the left of selected parts of the image, but by a repeated horizontal band in the photograph about .05 inch high and going all the way across. Incidentally, the most likely cause for the glitch was that it was read out of a computer memory twice. The implication: the age of computer-processed news photographs has definitely arrived.
