A manual stitch from some clear filter images taken on Dec,06 (original picures W00020421/26/34/32):
Colorization is, in reality, a sort of false color coding from original B/W. (There are also nice G-ring pictures) -------------------- I always think before posting! - Marco -

Yay! That's the Saturn shot I've been waiting for since I saw the plans for the tour and noticed the high inclination orbits. Too bad the raws are so saturated -- hope the actual data shows more subtlety in Saturn's disk.

Emily - there's quite a bit of detail in the region of Saturn's terminator, especially near the North pole where there are several bands and lots of clouds visible.
So far so good... -------------------- |

After hours of hard work (don't forget that this is my first ever attempt at producing a colour mosaic on this kind of scale), here is Saturn in all its glory!
http://img442.imageshack.us/my.php?image=s...ianregan6jl.jpg There are still a few tweaks to be made, of course, and I hope to post the final version at the weekend. Enjoy! Ian. -------------------- |

Looks great! One 'error' I noticed though is that the rings are brighter at upper right than in the lower left half of the image. The rings should be noticeably brighter in the lower left half than elsewhere due to Saturnshine - maybe one of the tweaks left to do.

That is totally awesome! Great work, hard to believe that's your first!
I wish I had time to play with Cassini images, but I see there is no need anyway with all the great stuff being done by you lot James -------------------- |

Awesome! I didn't think the footprints would align well but you made it look seamless! Great work!

cool!
in the top right, are those moving moonlets (a similar effect as the dust devils by Mars Express)? |

Yep, looks like Prometheus and Pandora and either Janus or Epimetheus.

Too bad all I get is an Imageshack page with a link to host my own pictures, but no image...
