Given the low angle, we REALLY should be seeing a lot more knee. His kilt must be riding very low indeed.
I did kinda miss the shadow extending back from him, but I was also looking at the shadow behind the light where his bass drone is pointing. If you look, it's to the left of the light, indicating strong lighting from the right side....
