428 a Conrad took this photograph of Bean as the astronauts were on the way to Halo Crater. The Hand Tool Carrier is to the left of Bean.
This is one of the rare “tourist” pictures of the Apollo program.
133:15:25 Conrad: I’ll tell you what. Let’s see, we’re cross-Sun, right? (Preparing to take a tourist picture) Look over here at me and smile.
“We didn’t take too many tourist photographs; in fact nobody did. . . We didn’t emphasize the human aspect enough, and I tell you it was a mistake.” Alan Bean (Schick and Van Haaftern, p. 100)
428 b During the traverse from Sharp Crater to Halo Crater, Bean took this “tourist” photograph of Conrad as Conrad was himself taking the portrait of Bean. The LM Intrepid is in the background behind Conrad (400m away).
“If you look very carefully at the cuff checklist, on the page farthest toward my shoulder is a photograph of a naked lady. It happens to be one of the playmates of the month from 1969. The backup crew put that in to sort of liven up our going through the cuff checklist,” noted Alan Bean (Schick and Van Haaften, p.102).
“Bean’s photograph of Conrad, with their LM in the background and Bean being reflected in Conrad’s visor, is as captivating an image of man on the Moon as is the definitive Aldrin portrait [AS11-40-5903]” (Dick, p.279).
133:15:32 Bean: Okay. I’ll get you (too); you’re right there by a crater. 133:15:35 Conrad: Where’s the LM? 133:15:36 Bean: Right in the background. (You) look great. There you go.
