Perambulation
south up image by Nick Smith, La Palma, Canary Islands
This image has so many interesting features that I'm forced to conduct a guided tour. Wurzelbauer is an odd feature. Its interior is full of irregular hills, with a patch of rille-cut smooth plain. The curved shadow within the textured floor Chuck Wood

Apologies to Nick for decreasing his smooth tonality by my image stretching.
I noticed when displaying this image with north up that it doesn't look as interesting. I think that is because I "read" images from left to right, top to bottom, and when north is up the upper left is an area with fewer dramatic shadows.
