October 13, '05 - second version of the Summit Panorama, sols 583-85 |

A possible third version will show the rim of Gusev on the horizon and a larger, synthetic sky. Once calibrated data
is available for these recent images I'd like to include the rover (center part of 4th row missing in preview below). |

November 10, '05 - A first version @ 100% - uncorrected 'raw' panorama
I'm slowly making progress to render this one an approximation as if a human would perceive it on the spot.
Balancing the R,G,B levels to get a uniform scene, especially using the raw stretched images takes time. At first I had a quick & dirty version of this panorama in mind but since the release of calibrated imagery for these sols will not be online any time soon I decided to go ahead with it and try to enhance the rim of Gusev too. The rim can be traced in this pan over almost the entire horizon. |

November 14, '05 - sol 620-622 - partially corrected raw 'Everest' panorama.
No, not a definitive version (though I might wait for the calibrated data) but another view from this wonderful location: the true summit of Husband Hill.
I spend a few days trying to make this a uniform scene but I give up for now. I might go for it again but there's some other things I'd like to finish first which
are more straightforward to work on. |

November 26, '05 - A ‘corrected' version of Spirit's sol 318-325 panorama.
I have been comparing it to the Opportunity sol 117-123 panorama I'm working on and this is it, for now. I'm already further improving it for printing so if anyone's interested in a poster let me know, you only pay postage. So far I had some 'test-pans' printed on high-quality photographic paper at 36” by ~7”(0.9 m wide) and it looks very nice. Other possible sizes; 48” by 10”(1.2 m), 96” by 20”(2.4 m), 144” by 30” (3.6 m). Drop me a mail for details or requests. nix@awalkonmars.com |
