The lighting on those two poles does not appear to match the
surrounding lighting. Why are both poles casting NO shadows?
Everything else around seems to have very long shadows. Photo looks
more like a composite.

What are you viewing the photo with? I see shadows from both poles on the
left hand side, just like the shadows from all other objects.

It's just that glancing at the photo the poles seemed to be glaringly
different, and 'jump' out while viewing, so I posted more as a
question doubting authenticity, rather than a clear statement
invalidating the photo.

Using Irfanview 4.25, in the photo that downloaded to me, the shadow
looks too narrow and 'drawn in' does not match adjacent shadows in
digital distribution - the hysteresis of colors..

The back pole's base is too abrupt in its termination at the pavement
and it appears that the angle of lighting is off by 5-10 degrees. The
reflector plate mounted on the back pole does not look 'right'
either. It's mounted too low and is too wide proportionally.

However, in support of authenticity, the markings on the pavement
around the closest pole appear to be indeed markings around a pole, or
at least some obstruction. However the pole's base to pavement
junction is extremely clean. Must be they have extremelly good
workmanship there, or...

Where do the wires for these two poles go? They do not seem to line up
with any other set of poles.

Is there another view of these two poles?
