Although the seeing was good,frequent passing clouds were a nuisance.
The NEB was the darkest feature on the disk and the NTropZ contained a greenish colour.

I had some of my best seeing for an image of Saturn on 26th August.
Seeing was good enough that Encke showed up in 7/8 of my blue frames,which may be a first for me.
The RGB composition has 5 moons in it,and the red filter/IR images & map highlight some of the features around the polar region.
There a couple of bright storms on the edge of the polar hood,the large one near 90deg I think may be the one in the HST images.
The hexagon isnt very well defined in red or RGB,but is strong in IR.
In the red filter,there may be a pale patch within the hexagon in the 180-225deg sector.
