Where the Shore Meets the Water's Edge

Okay, all of you ESA Mars Express followers know that this image is a Marsis composite, specifically an ESA/ASI/NASA/Univ. of Rome/JPL/Smithsonian derived image of a place on Mars where the the highlands meets the lowlands. The various colors relate to elevations with blue being low and so on. But for the life of me, that blue sure does look like a lake touching a jumbled shore. Perhaps this is an area that many years ago was the shore of a large Martian sea.

Enjoy!
