Imaged Saturn August 8th in good seeing, have very good data across all wavelengths covering 1 1/2 hours of Saturn rotation.
Have well resolved small scale detail from the pole to the edge of the ring shadow. 
Highlights of the 685nm IR data include, a small bright polar spot at approx Lat+72.1 L3 42.6 along with a mid latitude bright spot at approx Lat+30.3 L3 4.9. 
There is considerable detail and structure resolved within the EZ including a quite eye catching prominent bright spot with well defined dark features immediately preceding and following it at approx Lat+6.8 L1 342.2. 
There are strings of bright spots and I have marked some of the more prominent examples at approx Lat+0.7 L1 322.2 and Lat+1.7 L1 340.2
 
The R channel data also well resolves the polar bright spot while the R and RGB data well resolve the EZ structure. 
The R channel data also resolves another bright EZ spot at approx Lat+.6 L1 319.8 while the G channel data well resolves the mid latitude bright spot. 
The 685nm IR and RGB animations well present the EZ structure.
