Excellent photo, John!

Any comment on the artifact on the left side of the planet where it intersects
the rings? There is a blue tinge and an out-of-roundness of the image.

After several months of very poor seeing conditions, I was finally treated to a
couple of hours of excellent seeing on Sunday night and managed to capture
several good webcam videos of Saturn. Here's the result from the best RGB
filtered video sequence, taken with my Celestron 11 and monochrome CCD ToUcam
webcam working at about f/26 with a Barlow:

Hope others got a chance to enjoy the seeing conditions!
