Thread: Misunderstanding my side imaging

Notice how close sideways the shadow is to the target (diver)...



Now, in the next depiction....look at how much difference there is in shadow distance of "fish #1" and "fish #2" ...
*the diver's shadow above is more similar to "fish #2"...
*the red dot's shadow above is more similar to "fish #1"...



Try to imagine a straight line from the xducer - thru the diver - to the shadow...

The scenario of the "red dot" in the OP pic is correct...the red dot AND the diver are the same distance from the xducer ...making both painted at the same distance from the SI center line...(because the SI center line is the xducer)..

Now imagine the straight line from the xducer (SI center line) - thru the targets - to each's shadow....for your "mind's eye" to determine how high in the water column each target is...
