I can't find any front hazcam images of the RAT positioned on Santorini. However, there does appear to be a difference in the brightness of the top between 1713 and 1747. Perhaps the difference is due to the sun reflecting off the MI instrument box onto the top of the cobble. Here is a colorized version of the MI pan: Hmmm... |
