Yes Jon, there are shadows. Noticed them after I posted...not awful but still.
I just flipped them around and now the shadows fall to the rear. IF you only needed one door...less shadows. A smaller door cut to one side?

Not sure what other material could be used to eliminate the shadow...we'll have to give that some more thought.

Thinking...

What about sandwiching the netting between 2 pieces of plexi (not sure what thickness, but needs to be stiff enough not to sag)? Is there a good glue that would hold that and not totally 'white' out the plexi?
BTW- the netting itself isn't obstructing enough light to notice the difference.
