Photoshopped from a Promotional Season 1 Cast Photo
Contrary to the assertion in the listing, this photo is not from a photoshoot from "Hero," at least in reality.
In universe, it is likely meant to be a photo made sometime after William Adama receives the Medal of Distinction in "Hero," but the actual photo is based on a Season 1 promotional photo. It has been cropped and edited to remove Jamie Bamber's arm that would otherwise be visible from behind Mary McDonnell (Laura Roslin), and the medallion photoshopped atop of Edward James Olmos's torso.
Seen in "Six of One"
Photo is the one behind Kara Thrace when she forces her way into William Adama's quarters, where Laura Roslin is berthed. After threatening Roslin, Thrace hands her the FN 5-7, which she fires, hitting this photo that is directly behind Thrace.
