Hi James,

Very nice image although it looks to be a little to much on the blue side on my monitor, thanks for posting the image.

Rupes Recta

Posted By Wesley Higgins

Hi Mike,

It looks like you caught the sun angle just about right, the fault shows very well with no over exposed areas as you see sometimes and the breaks along the fault are very detailed, another excellent image.

Thanks,

Archimedes week of July 17, 2005

Eric,

Very nice, I would agree that more alignment points should help the over all sharpness of the image.
Wow hand picking 415 out of 15000 frames that is some accomplishment

Thanks,
