Faulty battery, bad alternator, or both (photos)

UPDATE:

I just ran through all of the tests and got signs pointing to no short, from the harness.

Went to start the car and the ignition wires at the alternator were hot *** hell and the car wouldn't turn over.

I then remembered 67Dart273 told me to try WITHOUT the alternator hooked up. I unplugged the field terminals, unplugged the VR connector, and unplugged the alternator BAT cable. Went through the motions and voila - the car started.

Does this mean (as someone else mentioned) the alternator itself is shorted out?
