Images of Mars in the artistic treatment
Outstanding art digital imaging, applied Dutchman Kesom Venenbosom (Kees Veenenbos), became popular with the publication of photos on the site National Geographic and NASA.
29 photos + text
He produced the image processing using the landscape modeling Terragen. He has worked with different versions of the program since 1999. Most of the images were sdeano by digital simulation of heights on images of NASA, obtained from different satellites, for example, Mars Global Surveyor.
He created numerous illustrations for National Geographic: images of Mars, an old woman, the Earth and other planets of the solar system and extrasolar planets.
1. Southern edge of the crater Holden
Pinnacles conceal the sun, shining due to the thin clouds, forming a star shape.
2. Type of Gusev Crater on Mars in ancient times
Place of landing rovers Spirit MER2003. Type in ancient times, after the dust storm.
3. Valles Marineris
Valles Marineris. Effects of dust storm, view from the canyon Koprat (in the foreground).
4. Noachianskaya epoch on Mars
Mars about 4 billion years ago. North Rift is filled with water at the bottom of a large lake - that's meridians. The rover Opportunity has found the presence of this inland sea. Achieved for the July issue of National Geo. 2005.
5. Plain Argirov
Concept for National Geographic: Mars in the period when he loses water billions of years ago. Deposits of salt, cracked mud formation of hematite, dust storms, and falling meteors.
6. Maraldi Crater on Mars, icy
It made for the cover of the January issue of National Geographic magazine in 2004.
7. The southern part of the plain Chryse
Ancient watered kind of southern area of the valley Rhys surrounded by valleys of Ares and Mariner.
8. The Martian North Pole and the North Rift
North Pole (left) and North Rift. The large crater at the top - Queen crater diameter 85 km.
9. The cave on the northern slope of a Martian crater Gale
View of the cave on the northern slope of the crater Gale. Cone crater Gale - to the left.
10. Sunrise on Mount Elysium
Image done for an exhibition at Madrid's Planetarium, dedicated to Mars. Left - Mount Dome of Hecate, the right - Dome Albore.
11. Place of landing the Mars rover Spirit
Detail of Gusev crater (background - Mount Hasbend Hill). Ancient Mars, fumaroles, sediment from hot water.
12. Mars ice age
Achieved for the magazine National Geographic Magazine.
13. Sunrise on Mount Olympus
Sunrise in the morning mist on the Tharsis plateau. Olympus volcano seen from the area of Lycus Sulci.
14. Mariner Valley
Foggy morning on the slopes of a mountain valley eroded Mariner.
15. The crater Schiaparelli
Light low standing sun does not even reach the western edge. The diameter of the crater Schiaparelli - 450 kilometers.
16. Orcus Patera Crater at sunset
Orcus Patera Crater unusual oval shape comes from the meteorite, which is slightly scratched Mars.
17. The southern edge of the crater Gale
Strange cloud above a ravine leading to the crater Gale. Cone Crater can be seen directly in the sun. View to the northeast.
18. Gale Crater
Sunset over the field of Cimmeria. Gale crater is visible from the Aeolian plateau.
19. Place of landing the Mars rover Spirit
Gusev Crater in noachianskuyu era. Another concept - more water and fumaroles.
20. Rift Melas at dawn
Place the rover's landing №2. Rift Melas.
21. Mars today
This image was printed with an image noachianskoy age (below) for the July issue of the journal of the National Geographic Magazine in 2005.
22. Mars, if it was the Earth - Valley Kase
Kase Valley and the Valley of Rhys. Below - a passage in the Valles Marineris. Against the backdrop of nebulae and stars.
23. Place of landing Phoenix
Right - the edge of the crater Heimdall.
24. The North Pole and the North Rift
On the left - one of the largest craters, named after Queen (about 85 km in diameter).
25. Rift Ius Chasma (Valles Marineris)
Ius Chasma (western part of the Mariner Valley) from haze and fog at the bottom.
26. Mount Tharsis
Mountain Arsiya, Peacock and Askriyskaya. View from the southwest to the northeast. Left - the crater of Biblis Patera (left) and the Ulysses crater.
27. Mount Olympus in ancient times
Mount Olympus about 4 billion years ago. With the water and dense atmosphere. Achieved for an exhibition at Madrid's Planetarium.
28. Mount Arsiya
Arsiya Mountain reaches an altitude of 20 km above the surrounding plain, its diameter - 450 km diameter caldera - more than 120 km.
29. Tharsis Dome
Tharsis Dome "upside down" during a sandstorm. Tharsis volcanoes rise above the sandstorm.
