You're joking I know. I think your expressing an interest in "The Shard" (an incredibly piss-poor and highly jacked with photo) while casting doubt on one of the most incredible sets of photographs probably ever taken, namely extremely clear high resolution photographs of real artificial objects on the moon, highlights how strange and counter to reason these moon photo discussions can get.
 
yes i was joking. i cast no doubt on the photos you posted at all... yes the shard is a incredibly piss poor photo, so is "the castle", but i am interested in all strange photos from the moon. i really appreciate your research in this area. my doubts are that we are told we cannot zoom in on a grain of sand or even a small rock on the moon.

You can see objects as small as 5 meters across pretty well in the lower altitude higher resolution photographs I have been looking in the LROC browser. You are essentially looking at footprints and objects under 3 meters in the Apollo 11 image I posted above.

Most, if not all the objects that I know of contained in these "strange photos from the moon" appear to be kilometers across and they are always in low resolution high contrast images. I have come to believe that is why the early Russian and American lunar images are the ones that contain these oddities and not those taken by more recent orbiters.
