Thus, witha certain deviation of the source of illumina-tion, the object furthest from the recordingsurface will move most while that which liesnearest the recording surface will move leastor not at all. Relationship of Source of Illuiiiiiiation toObject. 2. The further the tube is from the objectthe truer and the sharper will be its shadow.(Fig. 191).
