This picture was very interesting to me because it shows how thin Saturn's rings really are. It shows the rings from two different views, one where you can clearly see the rings and the other where the rings are pointed almost directly at the earth and the sun. When the ring is parallel to the plane of the earth and sun, it is known to be at equinox. When the rings are at equinox, they are difficult to see but this image clearly shows the ring.
