Below my personal attempt to process the two wide-angle crescent images W00016128 and W00016686 (for the last one, in reality, i used RGB images W00016687/8/9 and I made also an enhanced color version):

Wonderful! Looks like a bad b&w scan of a Chesley Bonestell painting.

A dirty wide angle RGB mosaic from near the ring plane (groan, again!) with a moon I can't quite identify. Might be Rhea judging by the size, I dunno.
