NASA has a stunningly beautiful picture out of Saturn at it’s equinox taken by the Cassini spacecraft in orbit around Saturn. At equinox, the sun shines over the rings at a very low angle, leaving just a thin shadow on Saturn’s cloud tops and casting a beautiful golden light over the rings themselves.
You can read more about this at the NASA webe site here. You will also find a link to the full resolution image.
It’s definitely worth a look.
