Here are our Saturn images for 26th February 2015. We continue to test the
new ZWO ASI174MM camera & think that it is offering some additional
advantages for us - more tests might confirm this!

The seeing was fairly reasonable for Saturn & the planet revealed numerous
bright & dark spots on the disk...overall a very good outcome!

Here is my first Saturn of this apparition. 
Seeing was good toward sunrise on this session.
There seems to be a faint darker spot in the mid northern latitudes seen in the high contrast image. 
I wonder if this is the storm remnant that has been tracked over the past few years?
