At any rate, one gets the distinct feeling like the Earth would not be the size of a pea, marble, or pearl.
Or that it would take more than a thumb to blot it out of the sky... more like a fist.
Yes, an item of fixed size will take up more of the frame the longer the focal length of lens used.

So what you are saying is that if the astronauts on the moon had used a 250mm lens, then the Earth would have appeared larger in the photos?

But of course that would make getting anything on the surface and the earth in the same frame even harder. Instead of this,

Well, I dont know what inconsistencies you are talking about, but I guess it wasnt all that inconsistent was it

Allow me to refresh your memory:
He lied when he claimed Kovalev's data contradicted NASA.
He lied when he characterized a water color instructor as an "expert" in photo interpretation.
He does not understand perspective.
He does not understand how terrain distorts shadows....
Shall I go on?
Dont bother, after reading the first few on the list,
I knew you were just rehashing nonsense.
At any rate, nothing you have listed either supports the landings or
debunks Jarrah.
At any rate, nothing you have listed .....debunks Jarrah.

Ok, that makes sense,
Can you now place next to the Earth, in the examples above, the moon so we can understand the difference in size. In other words, if we had the same camera equipment here on Earth, and we took a picture of the moon, how large would it appear in the photo?

Jack Schmitt jumping into LRV at station 9
The second of three photos Gene took of Jack jumping into the LMP Rover seat.
Gene goes to the front of the Rover to take pictures of Jack jumping in his seat. The three pictures are AS17-134- 20452, 20453, and 20454.
Cernan - "It was sort of a target of opportunity. It was just one of those (unplanned) things you do. And it's a pretty good picture."
168:47:08 Schmitt: Ready? (Pause)
168:47:12 Cernan: I got three of them that time.
168:47:15 Schmitt: (Laughs)
168:47:16 Parker: 17, Houston. Do you read me through the LM?
168:47:20 Schmitt: You're loud and clear.
168:47:22 Parker: Roger. Thank you.
168:47:25 Cernan: I hope they (the pictures) came out.
