Comments: Imaged Saturn August 12th in fair to good seeing. The vertices of the North Polar Hexagon are well resolves as is the North Polar Vortex.
The 2010 GWS AV is resolved in the 685nm-Pass IR and also in the R channel data. It is very faintly visible also in RGB. I measure it to be at approx Lat+42.8 L3 165.7. To highlight this feature I have created an animation from the IR and R data, so covering 10.5 minutes of Saturn rotation, have indicated the AV in both data sets used in the animation.
