among the many new pancams at exploratorium there seem to be interesting
images showing what must be clouds, clearly defined as never seen before
at the Gusev site.

Interestingly, those are high-res pancam multi-filter sequences.

Questin for Dan (slinted) refering to our recent discussion about sky color:
would't this be wotrth a try to do interesting sky color composites.
Maybe you could use the brightest pixels
in the clouds as a white point reference ?
