Kraken Mare should be near the extreme right of this image. I've been staring at it pretty hard but can't be sure I'm seeing anything. Can anybody find a way to pull the lake out of these latest images?

Just to continue this little conversation with myself here's another picture comparison. It's two views out of my lab window taken about an hour ago under a completely overcast sky. The only difference is the orientation of the polaroid filter.
