I captured planet Saturn together with its moon Titan in city sky. For my photo north is at 2 o’clock direction. Titan at center is several ring diameters to the east of Saturn at top.

As my location has a time zone offset of + 8 hours, I used Sky & Telescope’s SATURN’S MOONS OBSERVING TOOL on my PC and set the Date: 09/06/2020 and Time: 16:38 UT. The tool returns a screen which shows the position of moon Titan at several ring diameters east from Saturn, in agreement with my captured photo.
