Apollo 17, Taurus Littrow, Post EVA 3, 13 December 1972, frames A17-134-20524, A17-145-22224 and A17-145-22225. Jack schmitt first took a couple of Photographs of Gene Cernan while he was still wearing his spacesuit, note the dirt on his suit and his three-day growth of beard, Circuit Breaker panel 11 is behind him and the rendezvous window is above his head. After removing their suits they piled them on the ascent engine with their helmets. On can imagine in this panoramic view of the LM cabin that it is only Schmitt suit visible over the ascent engine while both suits are piled there. Schmitt took some pictures of Gene Cernan after he removed his suit but all were either too dark or blurred like A17-134-20517.
