You don’t think pictures of Mock-ups wouldn’t be part of the official NASA images? Typically there was more then one mock-up for a dimensional check. I’ve seen some very creative technical photographers in my time. Much of my own work was done solely from pictures. I’ve seen pictures of jet engine mock-ups you couldn’t tell from the real thing.
So you’re a non believer, ho-hum. I see a single track in that first photo. You do realize they took a motorcycle with them too. Americans are like that, lol. The other photos can be just as easily explained away.

Ah, yes! A single motorcycle track! That would explain it. However, we'll have to "realize" together that it could only "almost explain it," as, contrary to your representation, the elusive motorcycle only "almost made it to the moon," but never quite did. It was never even close enough to going along to see a design for it be anything close to being finalized. I'm glad you can admit you were wrong.

   

And yes, as the photos above attest, there were mock-up photographs taken, but all of the official lunar gallery Hasselblad pictures (with reticules) are clearly marked to have been exposed during each of the lunar missions. All the photo magazines in the official Apollo gallery conform to the standard nomenclature, ASxx-yyy-zzzz' where xx is the actual mission. The specific picture you questioned is shown in this official Apollo Missions archive webpage. You'll note 'AS-40-5922' is contained within Apollo 11's S Magazine, whose legend states: '[129 color images (125 surface; 3 orbital; 0 other)]'. Thus, the only interpretation is that this claimed to be an official-in-every-way picture from the surface of the moon during the Apollo 11 mission.

Your claimed ease at "explain[ing] away" these important facts and turning truth seekers into 'ho-hum' non-believers is troublesome, OftheOhio, though I welcome you to keep trying, as again and again you've shown that those stubborn facts are just not on your side.

I noticed you didn't have anything to say about the two stacked video frames at right in my first post here. They, too, are authentic and more than troublesome for people that say they can easily "explain things away.".

If you choose to continue to say things like, "The track you do see is likely from the equipment rack", I trust you'll be able to point out to what you're referring using an official picture thereof from the galleries as I've appropriately taken the trouble to do to answer your skeptical critique.
