Saturn on 23rd and 24th of March

On the evening of 24.03, Dione, the second densest moon of Saturn, revolved close to Saturn's southern pole. So far there is only one submission of Saturn photo around that date - they are from John Earl, the well known Australian astrophotographer.

John took the first photoon 23.03. If you zoom the image to 200% you will spot a blurry dot a little left from the pole. Could that be Dione?
