Don't know if we've seen that exact area but doesn't it look like a pebbly beach? (Well - apart from the small crater..... )

[kodemunkey]

Yeah, it does. Don't forget the factor five thousand. 

More rocks from Aristarchius (i think)

This is the largest impact in the general area (and perhaps the culprit?)

Seems as though macs have their own form of the snipping tool, called 'Grab' anyway, i found some lonely little boulders.

This boulder looks hungry.

Any takers? 

[Geoff]

I don't see any boulders in that last image - what are we looking at?

[kodemunkey]

My bad. I was looking through this area and zoomed in, the white areas are lots of individual boulder fields, and i was wondering if someone wants to look at them, or do you want me to look through it ?

[Geoff]

Maybe you should post zoomed-in images if they show the boulders.

Hi,
I have just found this collection of boulders in a image with otherwise has few interesting features.
The details of the image are (I don't think it's been entered here before):
ID: AMZ1002j8f
Latitude: 19.8104°
Longitude: 30.8799°
Sun Angle: -70.85°
Scale: 0.52 meters / pixel

The boulders in question are on the right side of the image with two large boulders showing and lots of smaller ones:

Its image is

Looks like these boulders may have been thrown out when an ancient crater was formed - which you can see from this zoomed out image of the same area:

Not sure if i should cross post in the landslides thread.

[jules]

You could - it fits in both collections.

[kodemunkey]

I call this "Boulder smash crater" Since it's more boulder field than crater, i posted it here.
