Yep it's in there. You'll find two photos like that from Apollo 17.

Yes, you can still move around and do relitively normal things in them, but it is more difficult. Especially on the Moon and having to deal with the
lower gravity as well.
Here's one example of an astronaut dropping something and bends over to pick it up, only to fall over himself.
www.youtube.com... There are more videos like that on the side.
It might have more to do with the weight of the PLSS on there back, but either way. It's hard to bend down without falling over and almost just as
hard to get back up.
Odd photo. If you gamma correct it the Earth looks photoshopped in. The background is very odd looking.
It does not look photoshopped in. When you crank the gamma to extremes like that, funny things are going happen. What you're seeing is the .jpg
compression.
