VMC Mars Webcam, July 19, 2020

At 08:07:34 UTC the VMC Mars Webcam on board the Mars Express probe, has taken this picture of Mars from a height of 10177.24 km.
In about two days the length seems more than doubled, I have a strong feeling that this time we will see good things!
For those who want to deepen implications and background of the phenomenon, I strongly recommend watching the video I made in November 2018 in which I illustrate why it can not be an orographic cloud (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eO7zC9-WBN4).
The original image has undergone noise reduction, white balance, and a slight increase in microcontrast in order to make the colors more similar to what the human eye would see.
