Saturn through Titan's clouds

I swear that the Cassini imaging team is taking some shots just for artistic sake, or to show off their targeting. It's well worth checking out the CICLOPS site, but one I particularly liked was this:

Too bad they didn't do a color sequence -- I'd imagine you'd have a slightly bluish Saturn (the far northern lattitides have been a bit blue in most photos, due to the low sun angle I think), seen through the wispy orange hazy of Titan.
