At the centre of a photograph no detail is hidden in "shadow".
At the edge of a photo much detail may be hidden. A hill has the same effect as a tall building. As the camera angle increases, the effect becomes worse.
The most common focal length is 152 mm (6"). When making photogrammetric plots a calibration report should be ordered because the focal length stamped on the photograph never tallies exactly with the real length.
