Ha. Ha. Ha.
Go ahead and laugh at my pain (worry).  ....  Anyway, the plan to advance down the slope increasing the angle gradually to match the sun's lowering path across the sky is brilliant. It is an indication though of the power management knife edge on which the rover's future rests. I suppose I should have faith that the right spot has been chosen, the right plan laid for Spirit's wintering. The rest is fate. |

I'm not going to get a chance to do this properly till after the weekend (Busy again!
)But here is a quarter scale quick preview of the Tuskegee panorama. I agree with others here, the view from here is particularly impressive. 
Cheers, James -------------------- |

Here is my final version, full size, blended, artificial sky and with a bit of fakery to fill in a bit of missed horizon (click image for resolution options)
 Enjoy, James -------------------- |

Well, if it weren't for rock shadows in some regions you certainly could have fooled me it was calibrated. And that's saying something with my keen eye for artifacts in mind.
Superb work! -------------------- |

Cheers, thanks for the comments.
And I'm working on ways of improving the contrast matching to improve the shadows you mention. James -------------------- |

MI images of the latest brushed area shows dust streaks pointing westwards (towards McCool Hill). This seems to be consistent with the orientation of the ripples in the area.
The martian winds can still work its magic on the sands... -------------------- |
