Wondering why the rocks are laying flat in the foreground. Is the near lip of the crater ahead, or is the robot inside the crater?

She's looking right over the edge into the crater.

With layered rock, the whole surface tends to slump to fit the terrain as it erodes away below. You are in fact looking at what was once the bottom of the Meridiani Lake/Swamp that Opportunity has already identified, as it slumps away into the crater below.

Looks like those old Roman mosaic floors. I think we're in someone's den here!
