      Hi all,

      This is an image I took last Saturday showing Saturn and two of its Moons (Titan and Rhea) setting behind the tree line of a mountain called Cerro de la Mitras located in Monterrey, Mexico. The distance to the trees was about 3.5km which is why I was able to focus them at the same time as Saturn.

      This was taken with a Celestron Nexstar 6SE, a .63 focal reducer and a ZWO ASI533MC camera.

      Here’s a [video ](https://i.imgur.com/a10jQL8.mp4)of the scene and here’s the [uncropped version](https://i.imgur.com/yQNPCrY.jpeg) of the image.

      Even with your explanation my mind struggles to comprehend this image and I think, nah OP took a pic of the moon and needs to clean their camera lense.

      Awesome shot!

      Fun fact: Saturn has two moons that swap orbit every four years… to stay minty fresh 😎

      I’m mindblown. Are there certain times every year where Saturn is so clearly visible like this? Is it always this close to see with just binoculars?

      I take a picture of Saturn and it’s a white dot blended in with a bunch of other white dots
