It's not really required to serve it from the same sub-domain always.
The most optimal solution would be to add the canonical link header when
serving using domain sharding.
But from a caching perspective, keeping the sharding consistent is
indeed beneficial (you can use crc32 on the image name e.g. this will
always return the same hash, and based on this do the domain sharding),
but from a SEO perspective, it doesn't matter if you just do it right
with canonical link.
