Comment on "Spatially structured photons that travel in free space slower than the speed of light"

Abstract: D. Giovannini et al. (Reports, 20 February 2015, p. 857) reported that they measured spatially structured photons travelling in free space slowing down even in vacuum. Here we present a simple quantum mechanical consideration which shows that even in these cases photons travel with the speed of light (c), and this measurement provided experimental results on the "projection" of this velocity to the axis of symmetry/beam propagation.
