Titan and Saturn

In these shots Saturn's largest moon is minutes away from slipping behind the planet. Titan, of course, is a proper moon more than 5000 kilometers across with a thick atmosphere (thicker than Earth's) and lakes of methane. The contrast between its hemispheres seems seasonal. And as always, the Cassini site has more, on Titan's close-up and on the double shot.
