I have finding better conditions during the late evening(compared to pre-dawn),and ran a fairly long Saturn session last night,resulting in the attach 2x R’s,2x IR’s and an LRGB.
I noted a possible light spot in the far south in the earlier IR which I measure at lat  -54 deg and L2 37/L3 331

一寸良い気流を思っていたが、こんな感じで普通の画像。午後10時には高くなり、見たり撮ったりするには良い時間帯です。

Dopo oltre un anno di inattivita,sono riuscito ad avere l'occasione per riprendere i giganti gassosi del Sistema Solare col mio Newton da 36 cm,dotato di specchio primario Giacometti e da qualche settimana di un secondario finalmente all'altezza (vetroceramico Zen). Nel terzetto di immagini di Giove si nota come il satellite Ganymede (che mostra qualche dettaglio superficiale) vada ad essere occultato dal pianeta. Saturno (nord in alto per lui) e meno inciso,colpa della sua minore altezza sull'orizzonte e di un seeing non ottimale nel momento della ripresa.

Some small dark spots are visible in the northern hemisphere of the planet.

Here's a set of RGB, IR & UV images from 10th September in fairly good seeing. Five moons are pleasantly close to the planet in red & RGB images - Rhea and Enceladus are above the rings, separated 6" and 1" respectively from the planet moving to the left (Enceladus disappeared behind Saturn while imaging). Below the rings, Mimas (sep. 2"), Dione (1.3") and Tethys (5") are all close to rings or planet, moving to the right. Enceladus was visible until within a minute of disappearing behind the planet. 
A number of small features are visible on Saturn, including two small bright spots and one dark spot in the northern hemisphere. A pale line extends along part of Saturn's south equatorial belt from the location of a bright streak seen over the past few weeks (and is visible in green and blue filters). Storm remnant AV is clearly visible in IR at +42° / L3 = 95°. There are no obvious spokes this time.
