Description
And for the many brilliant minds that created this marvelous marvel and brought it to fruition in a fabulously successful landing on Mars. I still can't believe it happened without a hitch.
I saw the whole entry and landing thing live on NASA TV, and was that a wildly happy group at JPL! Also saw the first images from the rover at the same time as the people in the mission control room.
Oh, and besides its scientific equipment, Curiosity carries 17 (seventeen) cameras....not as many as Andrea owns, but still quite impressive.
That said, photo captured 8/4/12, early on an overcast morning, somewhere in the neighborhood.
A ZOOM is highly recommended.
Have a nice day.

SPECTACULAR WOW! Love this and your POV really makes the beauty stand out Harry!
Sensational capture Harry, this rose is so beautiful. I share your admiration of NASA, and watch every event possible
Absolutely gorgeous! One of your best.
Hehe!! I have 4 actually, (but if you count all the old film cameras you could be close). Super pic. I agree with Tara.
splendid rose
Excellent shot of this beautiful rose.
Just gorgeous.
lovely ... wonderful angle for your shot...
The way a Rose opens and unfolds its' petals is almost magical. You have captured this magical Rose perfectly.
A stunning capture of this very beautiful rose and you have dedicated it to an amazing feat of engineering. I am so glad that the landing went without a hitch. They showed it on our TV too.
Velvety beauty, Harry; you captured the wonderful rich colour and texture in most excellent fashion! Well done you!
