The thinking is, presumably, that as much content >as possible should be visible. There’s a little more to this behaviour in WebKit. The image will be pushed in the next column only if slicing is avoided by doing so. In this case, the image is taller than one column so slicing is not avoidable (per WebKit's initial fragmentation design). Try to set the height of the image to 100px and you’ll notice it will be positioned in the second column. Andrei.
