About this image

Later on this month (24th) Saturn's rings will reach their thinnest this cycle before finally starting to display again.  Unlike earlier in the year and the end of last year the rings are now lit from underneath from our angle so we can still see them either side despite being very thin.   Taken in difficult seeing partially above neighbour's house and laundry vent!
