the depth of stratification is so varied , it's almost like im looking at stone works

obviously not strong enough

so which elements of the erosion process carved out those fine gaps in the rock ? the wind, picking and choosing ? , decided it was going to carve a fork shape , got bored of making ,eggs, it tunnels, and the like ?

just a co-incidence then, in you're eyes
I can appreciate a softer material being eroded away by an asthmatic wind , but if we were to turn it horizontally and look at the stratification ,at the 2 cm range , and look at it on the three feet range as in earlier photo's , what then were the conditions on mars to cause such varied stratification , what we need, I think, is a time machine
all plausible denials though ArMaP , but don't they add up

I didn't see it as a footprint, like a dogs or deer's ,I was think more along the lines of a malformed simon says game.. I wonder if it takes battery's @D

Most rocks are not uniform as a piece of moulded plastic, their consistency and composition may have enough differences to allow parts of them to be easier eroded (either by wind or, like the examples I posted, chemical reactions) than the rest, resulting in strange shapes.

Wow some interesting pictures here!
I saw this in our news today, it was under the headline "Big Bird found in space"
Now, I dont see how they see Big Bird and I dont care about that,
but I see shapes/shadows of two people, one standing, one sitting, both of them with something in their hands.
I got only the picture on twitter, here's the link:

(sorry, dont know how to embed just the pic)
