No, it doesn't look much like Maddie. A child of the same age and sex, but that's about it.
McCanns have hired a private detective agency, CRG, which is generating these Morocco leads. More spin.
It may surprise some here to learn that not all Moroccans are dark. The country was occupied by French and Spanish forces over the years. Germans, too. (Remember the movie "Casablanca?) There are blue-eyed, fair-haired Moroccans.

I think the woman wearing navy blue walking next to the grandmother looks like a Westerner. The baby is probably her child.
I agree with all that - I kept looking for her hands and feet. Why carry a child that large so low on your back? It's very odd. My first thought was why they were making an older woman carry a heavy child, instead of the younger woman?Rino said:To me it just lacks proper proportion. You can't see the childs bum, or hands securing her to the adult or any indication she is holding on as a child that old would be doing, in my experiences. The woman doesn't look like any significant weight is being carried, not in her shoulders, not in her stance. Plus the blond child happens to be looking directly at the camera like so many beautiful pictures of Maddie taken prior to her missing. If she was taken, they wouldn't at least try to disguise her?!?!
I think it is a man carrying the child. I also see an arm of the little girl in the picture, pink on the shoudrs with a offwhite on the arm. Also the little child is not the only one looking at the camera look at the boy in orange he is also looking at the camera.
I pray to God that it is her and she is safe.

Again, if anyone knows this: are cell phone cameras able to take pictures at 656 feet distance?

You are correct, the other child is looking at the camera. I was originally looking at the cropped picture in the Telegraph article, not the other link; that child is only half shown. (I think it's a girl in the orange ... with a flower on the tshirt, and a skirt ... and a ponytail?)
And I do see a child there ... you can see the weight pulling on the strap across the chest of the carrier, and also the waist, right above the red stripes. I think it's a man, except it appears to have *advertiser censored*? LOL. I don't think women wear hats like that ... usually scarves. And everything else looks like a man, except for those boob things.
If you look up "berber people" on Wikipedia, there is an engraving of a Berber family crossing a river, and the men have the babies strapped on them in a similar fashion. Kinda weird.
berber family
Doesn't look like anyone in that family would have a blond haired child does it?
