Only partly so. Just wait and see ;-)

They are two different things and both are present on both sides, only 
in the shadows the finer striation is less pronounced. The colour 
banding can be seen as changes of sediment composition over time; the 
finer, tabular, striations represent the lithification process of the 
sequence, also over time but on an even larger time scale than the former.

As this last striation is a normal, it is less visible in the shadows, 
although normal is 'on' in the radiosity block.
