About this image

Captured in twilight before sunrise. Upper image taken with an ASI462mc colour and lower with ASI290mm with a Baader 685nm IR pass filter.

Rings are closing now making the Cassini division difficult unless seeing is good. Earth ring plane crossing is in March 2025, although Saturn will be near the Sun at that time.
