Okay, why are the shadows intersecting instead of parallel if there is a single light source on the moon? Why are camera crosshairs covered by other objects in some photos? Why didn't they take pictures of the moon sky and stars? Why did the think less than 20 pics was sufficient to document such a monumentus event as humans walking on the moon during the apollo 11 mission? Lets start with these.

Post some pictures so I can autism them
 
Not sure what questions can be addressed without seeing pics
Low number of pictures: I dunno, that seems kinda weird. Maybe the film was bulky and they couldn't allocate a lot of space in the lander/ship for a bunch of film.
Not taking pictures of the sky/stars- seems pretty pointless. We see them fine here on Earth and they didn't anticipate goobers sperging out about needing that as proof they landed. Taking pictures of stars isn't exactly that easy, you have to set a camera up on a tripod and do a time lapse, they probably didn't want to fuck with trying to make a bunch of tumblr tier pictures. I think they just had a snappy snap camera hand held. The stars aren't visible in the shots they have because they are setting exposure for the bright surface of the moon, cameras can't pick up dim stars and a bright surface at the same time.

Job 38 might be a good chapter for you to read. Also a lot of talk about earth's foundations, stretching a measuring line across it, etc.

Regarding the pics of the stars, it would have been incredibly important for the study of outer space as there would be no atmosphere clouding the photos. There might be other explanations, but along with the other anomalies, just seems sus. Usually when people plan missions like this this they take advantage of such opportunities. How one weighs this is subjective, but to me it doesn't add up. Why do you think they haven't returned to the moon since?

Probably because they are too stupid to make it back there.
The dumbest person at NASA in the 60s was 200% smarter than the smartest person there now.
 
Furthermore, even if he's right about the shadow divergence, and every other rebuttal about the pics for that matter — that doesn't prove that they are real. It just bolsters the claim.

Really, that's your best guess? Why do you think it's important for them to go back now?
 
So in other words, the title "Why the Moon photos could not be fake" is stupid, even if he is right about everything.

The picture he showed of a fence shadows was not from the sun. The light source was much closer in that picture. Maybe perspective, but looks like multiple light sources to me in the apollo pics.

This is why I won’t refer to you as acceptance btw lol.

Why did they go to such conspicuous lengths to demonstrate that they did? It was a pretty big deal. Are you aware of the space race with the Soviets?

I think the camera was basically just something neat to do, not so much "proof."

What about the supposed 500 degree temperature fluctuations on the moon? Wouldn't that damage the film or is the film used some more tech we have lost since the 60's?
