12 Mar. 2010 Cassini starts 128 orbit around Saturn.

"Cassini will not fly by any moons during this orbit, it will take advantage of its position near Saturn's ring plane to image a number of mutual events between two or more moons."

This one turned up on the raw images site this morning... its serene beauty beckoned me to put it together. Anyone know which moons they are?
