Imaged with the old Orange C14 under good seeing conditions. Image is actual size no enlargement was done during minimal processing. Its rare for these conditions as low as Saturn is now. Scope was well acclimated and collimation was tweaked on nearby star of similar latitude as Saturn. I particularly like seeing the globe through the Cassini's division.
