And AW&ST smile.gif Seeing the surface and clouds in the same view really provides a "sense of place". Simply stunning.

And the similarities between the two are very intriguing...
Thanks, guys, both quality and speed of images posted on this Forum are better and better each day!

Exquisite! A landscape of blueberry fields forever, under tenuous whispers of crystalline reflections.
Stu! It's time for a haiku! Get to work. rolleyes.gif

In case Google crash, here is the model wink.gif

Let me take you down
cause I'm going to Blueberry fields
Nothing is real
and nothing to get hung about
Blueberry fields forever

Living is easy with eyes closed
Misunderstanding all you see
It's getting hard to be someone
but it all works out
It doesn't matter much to me

Let me take you down
cause I'm going to Blueberry fields
Nothing is real
and nothing to get hung about
Blueberry fields forever

No one I think is in my tree
I mean it must be high or low
That is you can't, you know, tune in
but it's all right
That is I think it's not too bad

Let me take you down
cause I'm going to Blueberry fields
Nothing is real
and nothing to get hung about
Blueberry fields forever

Always know sometimes think it's me
But you know I know when it's a dream
I think I know I mean, ah yes
but it's all wrong
that is I think I disagree

Let me take you down
cause I'm going to Blueberry fields
Nothing is real
and nothing to get hung about
Blueberry fields forever
Blueberry fields forever
Blueberry fields forever

Top shelf work, folks. That view really is impressive, and the reference to Blueberry Fields seems surrealistically appropriate. It is quite a dreamscape, or perhaps a dream come true. Everything we've seen through these rover's eyes has been something we could only imagine a few short years ago, and this view adds a new dimension.

A different version, with a polar-like projection of the Michael's stitch (something like a super-fish eye view...)

Mhoward and others, fantastic work! And imagine, we are now realizing that there are billions of other planets in the Universe, each with their own sights!

blink.gif blink.gif OMG, another all-time-best of candidate MER mood image !

What a great collaboration of a "on-the-fly"-Team"of four:
Micheal (superb original stitch) Tayfun (perfect blending out of the missing
sky parts), Ant103 (beautiful initial colorization) and Marco (mood and breathtaking lens geometry)

Awsome work !

I'd like to second that wholeheartedly - thanks to all. I hope this will start a trend and we will begin to see more integrated sky-and-ground images here. I'm sure the data is out there to do it. For geology the ground may be almost sufficient, but for 'being there' we need skies. I say 'almost' for geology because in fact the distribution of light and colour over the whole sky is directly important for interpreting what we see in shadowed areas of the surface. On Earth we expect shadows to be bluer than areas in direct sunlight while on Mars the reverse is probably the case, so we need to adjust our mind-sets accordingly and images like this are very helpful.

It's just a try, OK ?
I'm not good at all to do it properly but, since the begining I like the idea of the rovers sitting under the stars.
Feel free to do it the right way (BTW, originals are not MY pictures wink.gif )

Even my atrocious inability to control graphics programs can manage that...

(edit: sorry climber, it IS a good idea as anyone who has had the (increasingly unusual sad.gif ) privilege to see real dark skies knows... I didn't mean to be rude as I might have appeared smile.gif

And a very good idea it is, Climb! But I feel that the Blueberry Fields should be darker and 'bluer' than in this version, and the stars a bit more diffuse along the horizon to fully convey a sense of night..
