of course..
study the original moon shot....
it has the following points..

ladder not as visible, a big part of the shot is the 'pad' of the
lander..
there is only one footprint.. the rest are out of shot.. remember, 
you take LONG steps on the moon.
the angle of the shot is from about 60 degrees from the horizontal
(30 from vertical), so the footprint needs to be somehow changed to
reflect this perspective..
