Been some while since I sent anything due to various difficulties. Not a lot managed with Saturn this apparition (only 8 sessions). I'ts maxing at about 20 deg altitude here now; but as ever good seeing can come along to reward the patience and perseverance!

Please find attached a drawing of Saturn made on 11th June. Seeing was somewhat unusual in that the fine features were hard to see and indistinct and yet the image of the planet was sharp. A-Ring notably darker and somewhat bluer than previously.
