Caption NASA originale:"This poetic wide-angle camera view of Saturn reveals several small, dark storms in the southern latitudes, where storm activity has been prevalent since before Cassini arrived in orbit.
Also notable here is the semi-transparent C-Ring, which is visible against the backdrop of the planet.
The image was taken in visible light with the Cassini spacecraft wide-angle camera on April 23, 2005, through a filter sensitive to wavelengths of infrared light centered at 1028 nnmts and at a distance of approx. 2,4 MKM (about 1,5 MMs) from Saturn. The image scale is 142 Km (approx. 88 miles) per pixel".
