Despite the very low altitude of Saturn in the northern hemisphere, I still managed a few good shots of the planet.
An RGB image was not possible because of bad transparancy and simply lack of light. The green and blue channels are totally useless. Not mention windy condition and lot's of turbulence made it very challenging to keep the planet in the FoV.
So only a red channel image was processed.
I enlarged the NP region and enhanced the contrast a little to make the hexagon more obvious. Although not specttacular it can clearly be seen. I also included a projection map.
