What y'all smart people say about this? Musk's satellites are starting to come down , as they fall,they generate toxic pollutants https://www.facebook.com/share/p/12EaPqouzGx/

Had to zoom in, but I saw something unusual in your image, thought you might find it interesting.

Good find! 😁😉

What’s all this

Tracks left by the rover’s wheels

Yeah, sure it is. What are you hiding Kevin? 😉

Is Kevin prepping us for the earth shattering alien bombshell coming in 4 weeks? 👽 I didn’t know what the rover looked like, and without perspective on the distance the pic represents it was a sincere question. Thanks for the chuckle! 😂

Aww I see all those pretty hills off in the distance and my first thought is 'sunblob :('

I've trained you well! 😏

Kevin, any specifics on what 'simulated sky' means in this context? Enhancement, total replacement, ect.?

Also, is the white balance adjustment done against a known target on the rover, or is it somehow programmatically derived from the scene?

Thanks for any reply, and as always, great pics!

Simulated sky means that I simply replaced most of with gradients. Gets rid of various raw image artifacts that show up in smooth spaces like the sky.

And I applied white balancing through color channel decorrelation. I stretched each color channel individually.
