Conditions were well below average this morning. The enhanced image brings out Dione,and maybe just a hint of the rings.
Solar declination is +0.3 deg,and the ring inclination is -1.2 deg.

I finally imaged Saturn after its solar conjunction.  Seeing was horrible because Saturn is so low in the sky.
One thing interesting is that we can only see the ring shadow!
It is really weird to see Saturn without its rings.
This was captured using a Chroma IR715 filter and my new QHY5III585M camera.
