EVA from Molniya Station. Approximate altitude 1500-1800km, sinking to perigee on the night side of planet.
In the background is ACPM (Attitude Control and Power Module, a modified USM) with lateral ACS tugs docked. Zenith tug is used for retrieval of inbound station components. Also can be seen recreated Kvant module (docked at nadir port), which serves no scientific purpose but as a museum of Russian spaceflight conquests for visiting wealthy American tourists.
Aft of ACPM is Zarya-K and Soyuz/Molniya-TMA1, and ESA's CTV-2 docked to rearmost docking facility.
