OK folks. I have to admit I'm starting to feel a little overwhelmed in HiRISE images already, and I know the tap hasn't even been turned fully on yet! There is just so much territory to be looked at.
To help us all see just a little bit more I propose that we start a 'Picture of the day' type thing (not necessarily one per day, the more the merrier ) of HiRISE screen sized sub-images. Not necessarily the most amazing bits, but a bit random, I find myself quite drawn to the less obvious bits that no one may have seen yet. I'm going to use the same filenames as the original images appended with approximate pixel coordinates of the sub-image so that it can be found easily in the original. James -------------------- |

I really tried to make that work, using various light sources at different positions. But I don't see how I would create the shadow of my finger on my bright screen, short of using a blinding light. It sounds like a good idea, though.
In keeping with the theme of illusions, here is something different. When I first saw North Sinus Meridiani Landforms from Release 6, I knew instantly how it needed to be "enhanced." The f@ce and pyr@mids of the Cydonia region are nothing compared to this place. Kick me, if I am bad, but I thought we made allowances for artistic impression here. The detail that HiRise is able to capture is amazing. I've named this image, "Mars...Land of Change." -------------------- ...Tom

Nice joke, there CR. I almost didn't notice the Jefferson Nickel until I saw the words "trust" and "liberty" on the crater rim. Oh, and the FDR dime makes for nice "change" also... |
