It looks like it suffers from "vibration" or a double image... something
is wrong. Any ideas.
I don't see anything I would describe that way. The Sun was only 38°
above the horizon, so the low-relief terrain has a sort of embossed
look. Maybe that's what you are seeing?
The full resolution image of the hole,
http://hiroc.lpl.arizona.edu/images/2007/details/cut/PSP_3647_1745_cut_b.jpg
shows details around the edge very clearly, with no sign of any imaging
problems.

What is amazing about that image is that if the hole is 300 meters across,
as advertized, and it is that dark, that is one deep hole! But then, if
the sun angle is merely grazing, that may account for not being able to see
the bottom. I've seen a lot of deep sink holes (I live in cave country),
and I've never seen one that big or that dark that was so wide open to the
sky. What say you?
