And here a portion of the assembly : How nice Vanden ! Your work is just GREAT (and thanks for your nice quote). To help you, here are some versions I made in 2001 extracting the colors from a low-res (BLU, GRN and RED diodes) mosaic and paste them on the b&w hi-res BB3 & BB4 diodes mosaic (one of the versions you know already). For the "Sandy Flats" pic (the one you are working on), was added a low-res BLU diode "sky dynamics" image above the meteorological mast (pic taken earlier). => Your results show really good improvements in color quality and paste... Congratulations to you ! |

A little experiment. This is a super-resolution composite of five HiRISE images of Viking Lander 2.

When I processed and built the Curiosity dusk panorama
http://www.unmannedspaceflight.com/index.p...st&p=198007 , I knew that a similar imaging experiment was done during the Viking Lander 1 mission. It was ordered by Carl Sagan himself who was a Member of the Lander Imaging team and who wanted to see how the Martian landscape looked like at dusk... Here is his panoramic picture taken on Sols 163 and 164 (BB4 diode), fully processed and colorized using the real colors retrieved from images taken at sunset. A tribute to Carl Sagan and to the Planetary Society. Enjoy ! PS : The darkest band in the sky close to the horizon is real : its shows the shadow of the planet Mars reaching out in space 180° away from the Sun... |

Ahhh, that's very nice Olivier ! Thanks for doing this work !
With Viking pictures, there is something mythic, legendary, that the other landers on Mars don't have IMHO. We can truely sense the feeling of the wind of exploration, the very beggining of things to come. This is images like these -processed by you Olivier- that gave me chills down my spine, and the envy later to process my own pictures. Thank you for doing this . -------------------- |
