It is an Earth-based astronaut training photo. The image is mislabeled. That image number should have been a lunar sample image. We will be checking the collection for additional mislabeled images and remove them. The image appears to be one of the early images taking at one of several astronaut training sites most likely at Cinder Lakes, Arizona. The vegetation in the image appears to be native sage brush plant. This image was NOT taken on the Moon. Since this image was mislabeled at some time in the last 40+ years, it is difficult to determine who's shadow is in the image. If I find out more information, I will pass it on to you.

Added on April 9: The "Sage Brush" photo is a fake, not a mistake. Mary Ann Hager of Lunar and Planetary Institute replied that this photo was mistakenly placed in the Lunar Sample Atlas: http://www.lpi.usra.edu/lunar/samples/atlas/thin_section/?mission=Apollo%2011&sample=10065&source_id=S69-54910 (ref. 1) However, the above image shows not only biotic branches http://www.wretch.cc/album/show.php?i=lin440315&b=30&f=1044228676&p=29 but also crosshairs and human shadows without human images, just like many other "moon landing" images. No such things happen in the Apollo training images (see http://galaxywire.net/2009/06/29/apollo-11-lunar-surface-simulation-training-photo-collection/ ) So, the photo containing the "sage brush" is not mistakenly placed in the Lunar Sample Atlas. It was meant to be there. Also, the following photos seem to show uneven lighting: http://www.lpi.usra.edu/resources/apollo/frame/?AS11-40-5888 http://www.lpi.usra.edu/resources/apollo/images/print/AS11/40/5888.jpg Ref.1: http://wretchfossil.blogspot.com/2012/04/neil-armstrongs-shadow-found-in-thin.html
