I have been enjoying the many great imagery lately from Doug (great sol 454 pan!) and Nirgal and others. I'm working for a while now on Endurance and here is a preview of the 'artistic' version.

Yes, I would love to see it on my wall. I might rotate it some more clockwise for the horizon, and maybe smoothen the sky somewhat for the large version. What do you think?

WOW, that looks great smile.gif

I especially like the effect of the high "gradiented" sky that makes
the sight of the crater all the more impressive ...
(something we almost never see in the JPL pics)
and you also seemed to resist to apply too much contrast-stretching and color
saturation (a temptation that I find often hard to overcome) which adds that authentic, dusty and quite eerie Mars-feeling to your image.

Did I already tell that I'm looking forward to Victoria Crater ??
