The latest shots of Mezzoramia and environs are nice:

Same image that Nigel posted, but gamma contrasted, rotated, and annotated view. N is roughly towards the top.
The cloud streaks are faint vertical in this image (at the end of the red arrows). (Hard to tell absolute orientation at these high latitudes, but I think they might be closer to N-S than E-W). -Mike -------------------- Some higher resolution images available at my photostream: http://www.flickr.com/photos/31678681@N07/
