   The bounce may have disturbed the surface causing it to change colour,   
   surface rocks will likely be pushed into the surface, there may also   
   be a slight depression. The bounce footprint is going to only be a few   
   pixels even at best resolution so distinguishing these features is   
   going to be difficult, but I think just about possible.
