As part of this photo release, there are additional images showing the planet at a bit of a lower angle, but still almost looking detached from the rings. There’s an animated sequences showing 34 frames when the spacecraft passed through the ring plane. And an overexposed view that shows the detailed structure of the rings themselves.
I really can’t do this justice, check out the images and descriptions for yourself.
