Are Buzz Aldrin and Alan Bean the only Apollo lunar module pilots that were photographed while exiting the lunar module to get on the surface of the Moon?I have found six still images of Aldrin (A11-40-5862, -5863, -5866, -5867, -5868 [below], and -5869) and six of Bean (A12-46-6724, -6725, -6726, -6727, -6728 [below], and -6729). I vaguely recall seeing one of Jim Irwin, but that may be a false memory as one of Bean seems to match my memory image. Does anyone know of still photographs of Ec Mitchell, Irwin, Charlie Duke, or Jack Schmitt on the LM ladder?

Although it's not a photograph there is movie footage of Ed Mitchell descending the LM ladder to start the second EVA. |

There is 16mm film footage of John Young going down the ladder, taken by Charlie Duke from the LM window.And, of course, there is this photo (one of four) of Pete Conrad taken by Al Bean through the LM hatch. I think Bean held the Hasselblad camera upside down to take the 4 photos.  | |
