The narrow-angle frames proved difficult to work with because of the changing geometry of Saturn’s rings during the observation period. The solution was to produce three separate composites using the longer-shuttered frames: one aligned with Uranus, one aligned on the F-ring, and one aligned on the edge of the A-ring. These three images were selectively merged to produce the final composite. We decided that images with the longest exposure times were more suitable for this procedure, since the faint Uranus stands out to maximum effect, albeit to the detriment of the obviously overexposed F-ring, which is naturally brighter than the A-ring in forward-scattered light.

But the alternate composite, consisting of short exposures shuttered to favor the F-ring and not Uranus has its interesting features too. Its spindly ring contains pastel rainbow colors, possibly caused by clumps and wrinkles that moved between the constituent red-, green-, and blue-filtered frames.

Val also added an inset of a magnified version of the Uranian disc, to help emphasize the ice giant’s distinctive pale blue hue. She posted the final product to the Facebook and Twitter identities she maintains in the persona of "Titan Saturn's Moon" to an abundance of ‘likes’ and ‘retweets’, showing that these photo opportunities, while not necessarily useful for science, provide rich rewards to the tax-paying public for their investment in robotic emissaries such as Cassini.

One popular science page on Facebook reposted the composite, resulting an in avalanche of ‘likes’ and, perhaps not unsurprisingly, an equal quantity of Uranus-based jokes; such is the burden that planetary scientists must bear when discussing the much-mocked seventh planet.
