His shovel is on the correct side. I'd just think he grabbed the rifle and got moving.

I would think that carrying a rifle in your left hand when you have to have the other hand free was a common practice. I remember reading it somewhere in a hunting mag that it is. I've done it while hunting. I think it's faster to shoulder than if you were carrying it one handed in your right hand.

Anyways.. What's real eery is that speck above his "left" shoulder. It's probably a something or other on the negative but it sure as heck looks like a bullet. That would have to be some fast film and shutter speed to capture it so well though. I would think .
