Ceres
These two pictures are of Ceres. But this one's a little less obviously so. Shot with my smartphone through the windscreen of my ancient jalopy, (I was too lazy to get out, showing a complete lack of dedication to my art... :)
The other one is with a DSLR and its walkabout zoom lens, but zoomed in to 70mm in film focal length terms. This shot is about 24mm, I think, in 35mm terms.
And it seems clear to me that I'd rather look at this lower quality shot with its very wide angle.
I'd started with the notion of showing Ceres nestling in the base of its landscape-saucer (which is true enough) but in the WA version the village seemed so Lilliputian that it looked almost lost in the surrounding landscape's textures.
