The perception of any regular structure is likely to be misleading as it encourages us to extrapolate beyond the substance. Our eyes add another layer of misdirection (another beyond that of our minds). I find it hard to look at this image and see the shadow as 2 dimensional. It's because of that line running through the middle of the picture. It's a real line and lends its reality to the shadow, even to the extent of hiding on the shadows edge, while it is visibly evident in the body of the shadow.
