Let's use this topic for the last stops (Cabo Frio, perhaps?) before Opportunity leave the vicinity of Victoria for good.

No - those two images are one and the same - the M1 at the end is the first produced version of that image. If a piece of it doesn't come down, or comes down again, they make an M2 version or M3 etc etc.
http://qt.exploratorium.edu/mars/opportuni...23P1818R0M1.JPG and http://qt.exploratorium.edu/mars/opportuni...3P1818RL0M1.JPG Were taken at the same time - and the feature is only in one - so it is an imaging artifact, not a real object. |

It is a pebble that was squashed between one of the wheels and the terrain.
