>>>"Mark - Your comments above remind of George Costanza from one of the Seinfeld episodes where he looks at Jerry and says "Jerry, just remember... it's not a lie if you believe it."

What in the world are you talking about?

>>>"another really grainy photo..."

No - the one just above is the only really grainy photo so far posted. It is so blurred it is worthless.

>>>When looking at 100 year old photo's and the player is at just the slightest angle, up or down, tilted left or right, it changes the look of the nose... With 7 Bay photo's, his nose takes on different looks depending on how is expression on his face is and the angle he is looking at you with...

Total nonsense. Expression will not affect the appearance of the width of the end of one's nose (or how far your left ear sticks out) and it doesn't matter if the photo is 100 years old or one year old. Smiling (absent in all the photos under discussion) can move the nostrils up - but won't make them closer together.

Slight changes in angle will not affect the "look" of major characteristics; large differences in angle may make them harder to see or interpret, especially without a lot of experience. That's why I posted a clear photo of Bay (for which the "grains" were far smaller than the features - nothing is obscured) that was at virtually the same angle as yours. Your guy's nose looks narrow at the tip because it is.

So - find me a clear frontal view photo of Babe Ruth, or Jackie Robinson (you have thousands from which to choose) in which a "slight" angle of the head makes the end of the nose look narrow. You won't find one, nor will you ever find one of Bay.
