It wasn't. People look at how shadows look on the Moon but forget to compare them with shadows on Earth, which also appear to be at angles, especially on uneven ground. And the Moon's surface is very uneven, but it is not easy to tell in some of the pics. If you could somehow hover over the Apollo sites, you would see the shadows as parallel, because they actually are. It is just the wide-angle lens and the uneven ground, etc. making it look weird.
