On Twitter, Damia pointed out that the ring images are really spectacular now. As mentioned by Damia, in this image obtained on 2016-12-18 22:47 (UTC), non-parallel features are visible in the rings. As far as I know, Cassini is now obtaining the highest resolution ring images it has obtained since the hours following Saturn Orbit Insertion back in July 2004.
