My collection of favorite Opportunity rover photos is up on my site. As with the best of Spirit rover photos gallery, it shows how far along the rovers have come and how familiar this Martian landscape has now become.

Enjoy!

Aldo,

Some beauties in there for sure... "Clouds over Burns Cliff" is always a joy to see, but looking at "Endurance Approach" is real shiver inspiring... imaging what we're going to see as Oppy approaches Endurance's big sister, and gets its first good view of Beacon over there on the Far Side...! wink.gif

Stu : Hope we'll not have too many clouds over at VC! We'll not be able to see the beacon on the FAR rim wink.gif

Aldo : just priceless. Nobody could have imagined we'll discovered all this. Exploration is inspiration... and this "keep UMSF in impressively High level".

Some of my favorite additional Opportunity moments:

Fram Crater: Perhaps one of the youngest craters (um, other than Heatshield Crater!) we'll ever see.
Meteor rock: Seeing a meteor on another planet is just kinda wacky.
Endurance Crater: That first panorama from the crater's edge still gets to me. Have it up at work. smile.gif
