Ritterkreuzträger to Identify

Hi all

I apologise that the quality of this image is not the best but wondered if anyone can identify these two Ritterkreuzträger. One seems to also have the Oak Leaves.

This image was with a group of photographs associated with 5./KG 53 but it seems unlikely that these men are from that unit.

Any help will be appreciated.

To me, the man in the center appears to be Walter Oesau. He had that very distinctive hair and hairline.
