Did NASA fake the photo?

Reply From Lunar and Planetary Institute:

Unfortunately that image should not have been in the Lunar Sample
Atlas.
It is an Earth-based astronaut training photo. The image is
mislabeled.
That image number should have been a lunar sample image. We will be
checking the collection for additional mislabeled images and remove
them.

The image appears to be one of the early images taking at one of
several
astronaut training sites most likely at Cinder Lakes, Arizona. The
vegetation in the image appears to be native sage brush plant. This
image was NOT taken on the Moon. Since this image was mislabeled at
some time in the last 40+ years, it is difficult to determine who's
shadow is in the image. If I find out more information, I will pass it
on to you.

Added on April 9: The "Sage Brush" photo is a fake, not a mistake.

Mary Ann Hager of Lunar and Planetary Institute replied that this
photo was mistakenly placed in the Lunar Sample Atlas:
http://www.lpi.usra.edu/lunar/samples/atlas/thin_section/?mission=Apollo%2011&sample=10065&source_id=S69-54910
(ref. 1)

However, the above image shows not only biotic branches
http://www.wretch.cc/album/show.php?i=lin440315&b=30&f=1044228676&p=29
but also crosshairs and human shadows without human images, just like
many other "moon landing" images. No such things happen in the Apollo
training images (see
http://galaxywire.net/2009/06/29/apollo-11-lunar-surface-simulation-training-photo-collection/
)
So, the photo containing the "sage brush" is not mistakenly placed in
the Lunar Sample Atlas. It was meant to be there.

Also, the following photos seem to show uneven lighting:
