Prior to the Apollo 15 flight, preliminary plans for lunar surface EVA photography of Hadley Rille were examined from the standpoint of expected photographic contrast. Considerable variation in contrast was predicted, resulting in suggestions for specific targets either to be emphasized or ignored at various EVA photo stations. Apollo 15 surface EVA photography appears to have highly satisfactory contrast, generally confirming the predictions. The general technique can be applied to Apollo 16 and 17 photography.
