Saturn before and during this morning's occultation

I happen to like your digital composed results of the following image,
whereas Dave Smith's terrific image is perhaps more true to life as seen by
the human eye or by that of his camera's eye, whereas it simply needs some
tender loving PhotoShop in order to crank up the overall contrast.

Dave Smith's more optically natural image of having obtained the moon and
Saturn within the very same FOV and thereby having shared the same exposure
is what actually shows best, that one of the sufficient specks that should
have been within the absolutely crystal clear and otherwise black
NASA/Apollo sky, as obtained by any number of their unfiltered EVA Kodak
moments, should have been entirely capable of those having included a
look-see at having recorded the likes of Saturn existing somewhere above
that physically dark lunar horizon.

Jupiter/Moon occultation
Other than having created an incorrect JPG image file name, as taken by
Becky Coretti with Bill Williams, using a 15" Obsession and a Tom O Compact
Platform. A ToUCam was used with a TeleVue 4x Powermate. For some reason
this image file got itself improperly named as "moon.saturn.jpg", but
otherwise properly published as being that of our moon and Jupiter.
