Wandering behind the rings of Saturn

Which was not my surprise when processing the photo and discovering that it had captured the star HD 168233 exactly between the C-ring and the limb of Saturn.
This star has magnitude estimated at +9.25 and I never thought it would stand out so well due to the brightness of the rings and the planet itself.
Despite the interval of only 4 minutes, it is possible to see the movement from one photo to another.
Sorry for the poor viewing conditions, but still an interesting photo that leaves us quite happy with the result!

Your images are one of the reasons I keep being so motivated and amazed by this hobby. It is awesome to see what one can do with your experience and equipment. Great pictures of Saturn with lots of details, and of course with the bright star passing by.
