Saturn is not only nice for its rings but it works as a miniature solar system as seven of its Moons can be imaged with modest equipment.
Mimas and Enceladus were too close to the planet so they are not in the photo. The orange color of Titan is visible. The unlabeled thing is a star.
Taken with a 5'' scope and a Canon 550D camera in 640x480 video crop mode.
Stacked with Autostakkert!. Extra exposure of 2'' at ISO 6400 for the moons.
