have you tried desaturation ?, seeing as the colour is obscuring the view  for you..

The colours are not obscuring the view, the first thing JPEG compression does is change the colour space from (usually) RGB to YCbCr (a colour space similar to the one used in analog PAL), so from that point we cannot be sure if the colours are the same as in the original or not.

or are you saying now that colour interpolation now alters geometric shapes ? is intergral to defining them shapes ?

On a 2D image, colour is the only thing that creates the shapes, so any change in colour may change the shape.

does this apparent rule apply even if the asserted shapes are confined to an eightblock or not ?

Yes, because the change of colour space is the first step and is applied to the whole image. After that, the colour information is downsampled (changing the colours even more) and then the image is split in 8x8 blocks.

and you say I confuse you ?

I say this because the amount of atmospheric scattering (3d metalanguage *bloom*

the suns disc is lost in it's brightness and the only indicators there are to its position, are the lensflare circles

this massive radial flare that's apparent in the earlier picture's suggests to me that there's more atmosphere or particulates to create atmospheric scattering than Nasa are letting on

simple enough now ?

That's better, thanks.

After reading the page on the link provided and watching the video in fast forward (I hate videos and the guy on that one is particularly irritating in his ignorance) I don't see a thing to debunk, as the information provided shows that they are wrong, we only have to look at both sites to see the differences in the rocks and the environment, resulting from different geological processes.

On Earth we can see clear signs of relatively recent water erosion and we can see the result of a stronger gravity in the way dust and rocks accumulate on the sides of the slopes and on the angle of the slopes.

Thank you, ArMaP.
That Devon Island might be a game-changer, IMHO.
Happy New Year, everyone.

Thank you, ArMaP.

You're welcome.

Why?

Happy New Year, everyone.

Happy New Year.

you make image conversion sound so haphazard, where in fact it's very good at getting the image correct ,otherwise we would see far more strangeness then we do..is this the case? the colours don't change too much , its subtle, and they don't vastly change the shape of the objects we see

kind of a weak argument ArMaP , any new years resolutions?

You're welcome.

Happy New Year.

One might think that finding the "Martian squirrel" to be a resident
of Devon Island is interesting.

Thank you.

Well, they do have Lemmings.

That video shows what I mean when I speak of the different geological process on Earth and Mars, as we can see on that video that the rocks have eroded edges, while on Mars we rarely see rocks like that, most have sharp edges.

indeed they do..
