just made new thread about something suspended in the air on this image, then found this thread. There's a something wrapped around the enlarged part of this image similar to goggog's somethng creeping out. It's from http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/msl/multimedia/raw/?rawid=0370ML1516002000E1_DXXX&s=370
Yeah I agree, that could be what is making the entire image look so strange. The other images taken around the same time look much clearer. And I have wonder the same thing about the way the rocks look so clean. I work at an iron mill here on the iron range in Minnesota where we have the same iron rich soil (or at least similar) and even with the wind an the rain all the rocks get coated with iron ore making them reddish like the soil. Even our cars get coated with it, yet we find perfectly untouched rocks not coated at all with the red sand. It is also very abrasive acting like sand paper with the wind behind it. Anyways, here are a couple more crops that I outlined below.
What's with the red antenna looking thing coming out of this rock?
It's creeping me out
This one looks like it should have something creeping out of it.
Levelwind lots of strangeness going on with this image and it does look like smudging has taken place, but the whole image looks like it has had editing done to it (the tracks and surrounding area on the far right show show this nicely).
Going slightly off topic for a moment, one thing that has been bugging me for some time about most Mars images is the small stones that litter the surface, they come in all shapes, sizes, and colours, but it is the fact they all sit on the surface as though set down yesterday that I find the strangest, if these pebbles/stones where the result of long term erosion over billions of years then they would "all" be rounded/smooth, but this is not the case, even most of the larger boulders that we find with things creeping out of sit on top of the soils, they are either dropping out of the sky or they are being washed over the surface by very recent flowing liquid.
By the way this is a really good thread and members have found some amazing discoveries

No problem Xenon, I was wondering about the spam thing. I thought it might have something to do with the loss of privlages thread and a little closer look at the posts. I would have wrote you soon enough I've just been so busy at work. And it does look like some kind of tracks there doesn't it?
Without doubt some form of liquid has flowed (and froze) from between the rock, I also noticed tracks going out of the frame (far centre right), really good find Levelwind and I apologise for the delay in approving this post, for some reason it was flagged up as spam ???

Hi Macten, you raise an interesting point. I picked that up as soon as I saw the image, but have learnt not to work with the panorama images as they seem to have been 'adjusted' in some way. In this case the panorama image makes the anomaly look like one 'head' with an eye. So I went looking for the original and found it and posted it here. There vis only an image from the right mastcam of this anomaly and when you work it you see it becomes two seperate objects instead of one. The clarity on the panoramic image leads me to believe there should be at least one more image of the anomaly but I just cannot find it.
I am speculating here, but this appears to be three images and possibly some bones like vertabra as well as shown in the images below ;
I am even going to go further out on a limb and say that the debris found in this area reminds me of what you would find if the Natural History museum in London was subject to an enormous event like an earthquake and you were sifting through the rubble after the catastrophe. There are other anomalies, but I am going to copy all these posts to a seperate thread.

Hi Goggog, the clarity on your images is always wonderful ! What I mean is that the panoramic is a mosaic of images taken at different times and then stitched together so sometimes the overlap areas and the shadows become confusing. It is better to work with the original image when trying to find the anomalies more clearly.

I would also like to see this site from another angle.

Wow that panorama from sol77 is a great pic. I have only seen one other super clear example of a sculptured eye that good. The sculpture actually contains two separate figures.
I have not enhanced or colored either one but have isolated them.

Hi , as stated below from it was from goggog link
All sizes | Curiosity sol 77 mastcam R subframe partial panorama 18936 x 3934 Flickr - Photo Sharing !
geomeo, please can you post the link to the panorama sol 77 image you used below. I have tried to find it on the site but I cannot see the same image ? I would really like to work on this picture .
I laid out the references Sol77 in the message below. And on a site of NASA it is difficult to find interesting fragments. But here that is strange, I tried to find them on a site of NASA and found and it became clear that here:
