ArMap the "I think this one" link takes us to a photograph of a beach. Nevermind the biggish rock midpicture--behind it is a cove beach and hillside beyond the cove waters. You can see salt deposits and breakers on the beach. Of course NASA has always photoshopped and airbrushed to eradicate whatever ET craft might have inadvertantly wandered in view, and they ALWAYS change the hue of photos before we see them...so we keep seeing a red planetscape. Mars looks a lot like Arizona and New Mexico up close and in person. Red in some places, but not in general.

I think those "lakes" are mesas. :)

Well actually they are melts in the ice... what you are looking at is the polar ice cap. In this case most likely CO2 ice

What "I think this one" link? ???

I have seen many people confuse sand dunes with waves, but dunes remain in the same place in different photos, while waves are always moving, so they should be easy to spot on different photos.

No need to change the hue of the photos, just a little dust in the air makes photos look reddish.

And by using NASA photos you can get nice images of blue skies.
