There's also a tiny tiny little patch with a lovely double rainbow ( I'm too much of a ring muggle to say where. About 15% of the way from left to right )

I think it's visible in more than one frame as the orbital motion makes it keep up with Cassini's slew rate. I left them all in because they're kind of fun. That and I was too lazy to sort them out. smile.gif

I forgot to add there's also the corresponding right ring ansa scan, with the rings cut in "half" by Saturn's shadow. That one will have to wait, cleaning the cosmic ray noise in this one was quite draining.
