Fantastic Kodak images of "a Rhea-Dione-Enceladus mutual event. The mutual event observation will be taken on April 25 and involves Enceladus and Dione passing first behind Rhea and then behind the dark limb of Saturn. Rhea will be 2.23 million kilometers (1.38 million miles) away from Cassini, while Dione and Enceladus will be 3.12 million kilometers (1.94 million miles) and 2.98 million kilometers (1.85 million miles) away, respectively." (Quote taken from looking ahead Rev 147)
Well, 33 images are down and what a fantastic set. Hopefully someone he can make an animation or at least rotate 90 degrees.
Reason for edit: Changed enormous inline image to a link.

I took the images from the 'mutual event' of three moons noted here and put them together as a panorama...the final composition is just as a bit of fun.

I noticed that the rings to the far right seem to narrow quickly.
The thought came to mind is that they might be being shadowed by the planet.
Not sure about that, but the image is a nice one all the same smile.gif
