Buzz Aldrin's visor portrait, Apollo 11

Buzz Aldrin's visor portrait, Apollo 11
Apollo 11, July 20, 1969. The best-known photo of the first landing, and the most layered. Armstrong took it, and he is in it too: look into Aldrin's gold visor for a tiny reflected figure holding the camera, along with Eagle and Aldrin's own shadow. This is the full square frame from the Hasselblad, so the helmet sits close to the top edge and the churned ground and bootprints fill the lower half.
