Between the few visible raw images recently released, lot of interesting rings images... in particular, very unusual pictures like this:

I'm not sure, but I suspect that glare is produced by the backscattered sunlight; in fact, based also on time it was taken and using Solar System simulator, they were made with "zero angle phase" front illumination...
I tried to make a false color (IR+R+G filters) composition; even if images alignment probably isn't perfect, result is amazing ohmy.gif :
