Robin,

I don't care how clear all those glossy magazine photos are, your Saturn is incredible. Forget about the blurring, look at the 3D effect. If you concentrate on the shadow of the planet on the rings at the bottom is seems eerily real. Crystal clear photos don't have that.

It's spooky photos like this one that make me think how amazing it would be to look out of a space vehicle window and see Saturn for real. Silent but huge. Menacing but Majestic.

Sorry, I went all poetic for a minute.
