There is "second photo", which seem to exist in several versions. Low resolution versions were on TV. Now this claims to be "high resolution" version. But I also remember seeing what I now recall was "blue-sky" version of this, on the day around publication day (smth like 22 December). It looked a lot like the first photo overall, just had this ropes hanging. I no longer can find blue sky version. I did not spent much time looking at it, thinking it is actually the original version of the first photo, not an independent photo. I did not save photo or link, not thinking it is of importance. I am now uncertain whether there was in reality one photo taken, and various digital "photoshops" of it issued,  or there were two truly independent photos--Resup (talk) 13:32, 26 December 2014 (UTC)

Here is a " bluer sky" version ; I guess this is what I saw. With stupid things like brightness, contrast, color/saturation editing it may be possible to produce different impressions on light/cloud conditions. That blue sky photo 2 appeared in comments to the article, on 23 December. Looking at  electric poles or single trees, I can see no shadows, so timing would be afternoon-ish... --Resup (talk) 14:00, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
