Details:
I did not find the seeing condition good but it was at 'average' most of the time. Also, there were some high clouds rolled by but it didn't interfere much during the observation.
Visually through the eyepiece. Titan's shadow looked a lot smaller than I thought. It was more like an inky spot and it was popping in and out through the turbulence.
I have attached a decent shot here taken at 4:19 am (8:19 UT). The shadow was already passed the central meridian.
Next transit: September 4th...
