Today's Images (Sol 88) show new navcam and pancam images of Endurance crater. Due to the different exposure settings and filters, the wallrocks look better in Navcam than pancam!

I've tried to "improve" the pancam by stitching a couple of frames together and then drastically boosting the contrast to bring detail out of the shadows. The result is OK, but is stretched to the limit of the data (some of the "layering" is damaged by compression artefacts).

Nonetheless, it looks interesting, with hints of large-scale layering and some massive detached blocks in the crater wall.

I reccomend you to download the unenhanced image and play with your own enhancement methods - you see more that way since different bits come clear at different degrees of brightening.

I had a ply with those images as well - to be honest you're right - there's not a lot in there, the auto-exposure treatment of the images thanks to the ammount of sky in the scene makes sure it's a bit dodgy.
