Short animation compiled from 11 selected B-side right rear hazcam images. The images were captured at +/- 5 seconds of 09:45:40 LMST on each of the 11 sols.
Observing the moving shadows cast by the rover, we can note the seasonal changes in the position of the sun. We can also note small fluctuations in the brightness of the sky and the grey-scale of the rover shadow, these could be associated with varying levels of haze on each sol. Link Sols : 223 to 225 inc, 227 & 228, 230 to 235 inc. |

I noticed some large scale boxwork in strata near the base of Mt. Sharp, directly to the southeast. It is visible in some cliffs facing us in the lower left portion of this Right Mastcam image from sol 271. I knew I had seen this boxwork early in the mission, but I could never find it again.
