My first choice for "easily refuted" would be the issues with the varying brightness in the photographs. The fact is that the brightness in a photo depends not only on the external brightness but on how open the shutter is, the length of the exposure, and the sensitivity of the film. You can overexpose a photo of a black cat at midnight if you leave the shutter open long enough, and you can take direct photos of the Sun with a fast enough shutter. Doing straight comparisons of two photographs is totally meaningless without knowing the details.
