Divergent shadows are due to perspective and show the unevenness of the terrain they fall on, nothing more.
Explain this photo, more than one light source?:

Yeah. The light appears to be coming from way left on the first pole and from way right with the last pole. Despite all the poles being level in height and seemingly on level ground. I say this photo was doctored too.

So all these were altered too?
Those are just a few examples out there of converging or diverging shadows with the same light source.

We are talking sun position not vanishing points. The sun is a long way from earth so shadows do not rely on the horizon's vanishing point. See the first pole the shadow almost meets the second pole. On the last pole the sun's position has moved.

Nope.Not in the least. And I've done a million perspective drawings and this is anything but normal.edit on 29-11-2012 by MortPenguin because: (no reason given)

No nothing to do with perspective. On the first pole the sun is way left and on the last pic the sun is on the right. You can see that the angle of shadow has changed even in a 3d environment. On the first pole the shadow almost meets the second pole and on the last pole the angle has changed unnaturally.

If you've seen enough evidence to believe it was a hoax then you are a gullible person.

Given the political climate of that era, and the Russians were watching closely I'm sure,
wouldn't they have blown the whistle had it been staged, yes?
