Do you suppose that they have been faceted by the wind blowing from three different directions? It seems reasonable, due to common orientation of faces... however, i'm not a geologist! Anyway, there are also some rocks in the left portion with stronger erosion and without clear faceting orientation... -------------------- I always think before posting! - Marco -

P.S.: I still bet that Oppy's Pictures from Victoria Crater (if we get there) will be the most impressive of the whole mission

Regardless, it's a beautiful image, with a nice contrast between the lowlands far off to the left and the weird craggy rock thing a stone's throw away on the right. Nice work.

However, only one filter was used on each side.. so I had to colorize it "from scratch" ...

If NASA/JPL would be able to do that, then they would provide us such views constantly. BTW, what means "I finished the hand-colorizing of the first part of the high resolution panorama."? It was finish! Your Mars imagination looks definitely redder than my imagination -------------------- Peter MER filename decoding into local true solar time - MSL clock and filename decoding
