Comments: Imaged Saturn this morning, Feb 18th in very poor low alt seeing. I have a good forecast for Feb 19th and was just checking the setup of my scope having flopped it back to the East on my mount. Initially I was going to throw away this data but processed it anyway, could only stack 25% of the data. Although it is poor data which I apologise for sending, it does resolve a large bright spot on the edge of the NPR near the F limb. To be resolved in such poor quality data this must be quite a prominent feature. I measure the spot to be at approx Lat+56.7 L3 216.4. Best Regards Trevor
