The current portion of the Cassini mission has been relatively lacking in spectacular pictures, since it's on a relatively wide orbit near the ring plane that is rotating toward Saturn's magnetotail, instead of taking close-up pictures of moons or higher-inclination pictures of the rings. But this still provides an opportunity to get nice multi-moon pictures from further off; here's a good animation of Epimetheus, Titan, Dione and Pandora.
