- Two west-looking oblique Hasselblad frames on color film, made during the mission of Apollo 10, show Blagg in Sinus Medii at local sunrise (local morning light). These two frames are:
- AS10-27-3905 (appearing together with nearby Bruce, and Rhaeticus L near the frame's lower margin)
- AS10-27-3906 (appearing together with nearby Bruce, sunrise terminator in the distance)
- Note that these two frames were frequently reproduced (printed) in popular books of manned spaceflight and pre-Apollo 11 literature.
