        This mosaic was acquired by the Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity on Sol 1595 (July 19, 2008). This shot did not hit its intended target, but instead provides a view across Victoria Crater from the rover's location near the base of Cape Verde. The visible seam between frames (more obvious in the false color version) is caused by dust buildup on Pancam's front sapphire window. Pancam's 601nm, 535nm, and 482nm filters were used in this mosaic.  Two versions are available below at full resolution: an approximate true color rendering, and a false color stretch to enhance the subtle color differences in the scene.
