What a shock it would have been if those images made it back.
The art work back than depicted the moons as Cratered frozen rocks. |

Another project I am working on is trying to work with the Venera pans. I am hoping to make a few images that have a more "normal" design than the original pans. Here is one I am working on.

QUOTE (tedstryk @ May 27 2005, 07:01 AM) Another project I am working on is trying to work with the Venera pans. I am hoping to make a few images that have a more "normal" design than the original pans. Here is one I am working on. I was motivated to work around the inherent limitations of the Venera data, and tried to produce some credible Venus surface imagery based entirely upon Venera imagery, but with cloned fill and various coloring schemes that struck me as realistic. The order of images is, first row, Veneras 9 and 10; bottom row, Veneras 13 and 14. The Venera 10 image, I have done nothing but reproject and color. The other three, I colored (all four in a different way) and cloned to fill gaps. I probably overdid it with the Venera 9 hills, but got the color best of all there. If I learned one useful technique here, it was to use the Photoshop magic wand to select a weirdly-shaped portion of the landscape (matching by luminance) and then to adjust its saturation. This may sound like Greek to most of you, but I recommend it to anyone who that makes sense to. I have been meaning to apply it to the cartoon-colored Huygens surface shot, and I think it could do wonders there, because uniform saturation across a shot is a powerful indicator of falsity. Anyway, I hope at least one of my four tries produces the "feeling" of looking out across a venusian landscape... I like the Venera 9 and Venera 14 shots best -- they almost make me wince in expectation of crushing heat. ![]() |
