I had variable seeing this morning during my Saturn session.
Dione was in transit near the south polar region,and I have included a cropped section of the best R capture showing the transit.
Dione was just leaving the transit in the IR.
Unfortunately the G and B were poor,giving a low res RGB.

I already sent my image of Jupiter with a Shadow Transit of Io exiting the planet.
Just finished processing the Saturn image from that morning.   To my surprise a shadow transit of the moon Tethys was occurring!   This is my first observation of a shadow transit on Saturn!   The seeing was very good and the transparency was above average with some haze.   I derotated six one-minute videos. See the results.
I have a question regarding the LD compensation in WinJupos.   What values should I use for LD value and LD angle?
I watched Chris Go's excellent series of videos on YouTube and Chris initially recommended a value of 0.65 and 0.65.   In a later video he changed the values to 0.90 and 0.90.   I find I get artifacts around the edges of the planet using either of these values.   I left the LD compensation box unchecked in producing this image.   Leaving the LD compensation unchecked produced the best results.   Any comments/suggestions?
What number should I use for the LD value and LD angle?   Are there different values for different planets.   What is your experience?   Please advise.   Look forward to hearing from everyone.

このところずっと梅雨の雲間を縫っての撮影で、まとまったセット数が確保できないので、デローテーションができません。全部単発です。
そのために、日によって随分と解像力・像の荒れかたに差があります。早く梅雨明けしてくれませんかね。
