Well all I can really say is if they were on earth would you look twice or even argue that they may or may not be artifact's.
I would argue that Sidonia does look artifical, that there are many feature's but we each have our own opinion's, as I can not prove mine beyond a doubt neither can you, you have the luxury however of being in line with the official consensus on that subject but as you know yourself not even all scientist's agree with that point though to go on record can bring them into disrepute with the entrenched and established opinion of there community and even cause them to lose standing if not worse.
Remember these in Egypt which May or May not be pyramid's perhaps older and even bigger than Giza's three titan's.

I have to say that I completely disagree with you on
everything you have ever written towards mars.
It seems all you see are rocks.
you never even are moved to think something could be there..
It's very interesting of you.

the distances between the centre of each one is 373 and 383 pixels... they are not in a straight line.

Please can we stop using this image(first one pictured below) it is upside down and is only showing the shadows and not the objects in Question themselves.
The objects do align (inverted) displayed correctly.
I've put a yellow circle where I think the sun direction could be coming from. There are possible reflections off the objects, with shadows cast behind them? Shadows and illumination direction are the same for the terrain in comparison.
North azimuth: 93.03°
Sun azimuth: 36.74°
North azimuth
In a raw or unprocessed MOC image, this is the angle in degrees clockwise from a line drawn from the center to the right edge of the image to the direction of the north pole of Mars. This number allows the user to determine "which way is north/south? and which way is east/west?"
In the Planetary Data System cumindex.tab file, this datum is called NORTH_AZIMUTH and is found in column 41.
Sun azimuth
In a raw or unprocessed MOC image, this is the angle in degrees clockwise from a line drawn from the center to the right edge of the image to the direction of the sun at the time the image was acquired. This number allows the user to determine "which way is the sun coming from in my image?"
For images that have been map-projected so that north is to the top of the frame, the sun azimuth can be determined relative to north by subtracting the north azimuth from the sun azimuth. The resulting number (positive clockwise) gives the sun azimuth relative to the top of the frame.
In the Planetary Data System cumindex.tab file, this datum is called SUB_SOLAR_AZIMUTH and is found in column 42.

Interesting. Any chance it's a stitched image and the three objects are actually just one that occur where the image is stitched? That or a possible camera glitch?
I will keep an eye on this thread as it does look really abnormal to me. How do you know they are exactly 800 feet apart?

What do we have here? Peculiar objects and formations that do not appear to be natural. Or perhaps the geology of Mars is such that it manifests itself in distinct patterns and objects as can be seen in the images below? Thought I'd share this with you. So here goes....
1. Strange Objects - Equally Spaced.
Here’s an image of Mars taken from the Opportunity camera in Jan 07.

There are six objects you can clearly see that I’ve marked in red squares. They are all equi-distant! Can this be possible in nature? Are they just stones lying around, or are these artificial constructs? (There are more objects in a straight line in the original Opportunity image which I have cropped).
2. ’Craters’ – Lined Up
This next image is a question mark. The exact location is unknown, but somewhere near 86.8°S, 341.3°W . This is an area termed ‘Anomaly 502’. Note the ‘craters’ on the upper right of the image on the left. The B/W pic on the right is purportedly a radar contour image of the same area where one can clearly see the ‘craters’. But they all seem equally spaced! Rare for a natural phenomenon!
3. Strange Parallel Furrows
These are in the form of parallel ‘tracks’ that run up the mountains from the valley floor, following the contours of the terrain in Candor Chasma. Though it’s a 3-D overlay, it does not explain why these have formed. The image joint which is in a straight line is also clearly visible below the ‘tracks’. So these ‘furrows can’t be the result of the joint.

4. Trench / ‘Canal System’
Here’s a pic of the Cydonia region of Mars. Notice the parallel walled trench. Was it part of a canal system that is now in ruins? Probably a defunct hydro system?

Cheers!

I remember that thread, and, if I'm not mistaken, the first photo shows marks left by the rover when it did half-turns to "look" left at the position from this photo was finally taken, next to a crater.
The second is meaningless, as it doesn't have any real reference, and the third is the result of mapping a 2D photo with some imaging artefacts (the stripes) on a 3D model.
I don't remember any thing about the fourth.
PS: most of those Mikesingh threads showed nothing special, but they were always interesting.

That's because I don't see any reason to say any thing about it.

That's why I am also open to all possibilities, not being so may result in ignoring the real explanation.
