Thanks Tom, this was my first opportunity for over a month, with good seeing, to capture the detail around the head.

Thanks Carl, it does reveal a quite interesting structure in the negative that also is clearly recognizable in the IR.

Thanks very much Lester, with Titan I processed another version of the RGB data but aligned on Titan rather than Saturn and then copied and paste the aligned Titan over the original Titan. The negative of this has shaded the entire piece.

Thanks very much Derek, the negatives certainly add another dimension to the storm structure.

It seems that there are no 'spokes' lately.

Thanks very much Freddy, the spokes seemed very prevalent closer to opposition.

Thanks Troy, yep, the morphology continues to evolve.

Thanks Rob, many of the research groups involved in this also remain very interested in the active region around the head of the storm and I know of one that has put in another proposal for time with the VLT to image these bright knots at thermal wavelengths.

Thanks Ray, the storm shows no sign of easing, I think the material that has been and continues to be dredged up will still be visible next apparition.

Thanks Grame, June is shaping up to be a much more productive month than May was for planetary imaging. I could only record data on 3 nights in May.
