Hi Richard,

well done, a fine start into the coming Saturn season. And yes, I'm jelaous because I didn't have imaged Saturn yet this season myself wink
My only small complaint is the not too prominent C-Ring, looks like the image capture was a bit too dark to completely pick up the subtle Crepe ring ?

Groetjes & clear skies!
