Now seriously, I was wondering what could be the reason for the, mmm, illumination effect observed on two of the navcam shots making the sol 3110 mosaic. I don't think that's a real difference on the soil itself.

This is just a solar flare on the lenses.

Yeah, we tend to get that glare when we look closely towards the sun with navcam, and being on this east-facing slope we tend to do that in the afternoons.
BTW, in Ant's latest navcam mosaic I like how you can see so much of our recent tracks around the "loop". |

"Garson" (sol 3110)
 And, yes, I'll say it... that is one hoopy Frood (left)  Yes, it's name is Frood. The outcrop to the SSE on sol 3110 is "Podolsky". It appears that the ragged end of Stobie may be named "Strathcona". |

While I guess all these are named after the Sudbury mines, the Hitchhiker's Guide definition of Frood (A really amazingly together guy) certainly does apply to Opportunity, if not the rock.

I've lost my orientation of Carson relative to the crater. The layering in Carson seems almost edge on dipping slightly to the left in this view. What compass direction was the camera facing?

Here's my take on a polar view of that site.
QUOTE (serpens @ Oct 25 2012, 07:10 AM)  While I guess all these are named after the Sudbury mines, the Hitchhiker's Guide definition of Frood (A really amazingly together guy) certainly does apply to Opportunity, if not the rock. Ok, so that means "Podolski" was definitely not named after this person.

Thanks Ant - glad you like it
So this one is from the sol 3110 position - its not Ösil nor is it Schweinsteiger - its somewhat fuzzy MacLennan:
McConnell from the same sol looks even better but unfortunately one L7 is still missing ... |

I'm trying to locate named features now we are getting so many. Please add others if you have them.
