This is my first attempt at Saturn in 2007. The rings closed in on themselves last year, and unfortunately it will continue in the years to come ...
Unfortunately, this year 2007 is poor in terms of the weather: it is often very bad, winter is yet to come (even in March) with its cool and stable nights, atmospheric turbulence is omnipresent .
The Cassini division is still there around the rings. I have not managed to eliminate any noise.
