The Red Planet?

Can't decide how I feel about this one, but it is time for bed so I'm going with it. This is a macro of a chili pepper (Tien Tsin), that to me looks a bit like a landscape. If I had more time and energy, I'd photoshop in the Curiosity lander. :-)

I was thinking about a spice shot for tonight, as lately my son has been really into smelling spices, and tonight we spent 15 minutes before bed looking at and smelling all our chili peppers. But could not come up with a composition that I liked, so decided to break out the macro and see what happened. This is the result.
