When was this photo taken? Only one ship attached to the CSS?

As we know there have been always one Tianzhou and 1-2 Shenzhou spacecafts attached to the CSS since Mengtian and Wentian was launched into orbit.

This photo can be taken any time because it is the configuration for most of the time. There is a shenzhou docked at nadir port (on the hub pointing to earth) that is blocked in the view.

That ship shown is Tianzhou. There must a Shenzhou docked to nadir port (port pointing to earth) wich can not be seen in this photo.

Later coming shenzhou usually dock to the forward port (port on the hub opposite to Tianhe), later on when the previouse shenzhou depart from nadir port, the later shenzhou will move to nadir.

General
Long March 7A's strap-on boosters and first stage are jettisoned together, as opposed to the more traditional way of jettisoning the boosters first and then the first stage sometime later.
