Comments: Imaged Saturn November 26th in quite reasonable seeing for so late in the apparition. The 685nm IR data resolves a small bright spot hard up against the one side of the polar hexagon at approx Lat+79.4 L3 141.1 it is best seen in the polar maps, particularly the polar animation. Some low contrast features are resolved in the EZ, again best seen in the IR data. I measure a low amplitude ripple on the EZ / NEB border at approx Lat+14.3 L1 180.4 also I have marked and measured a dark feature within the EZ at approx Lat+5.5 L1 183.5
