Correct! Dione is the half-cratered small moon in the foreground (it has distinct geography in each hemisphere), while the large moon Titan with it's dense near-uniform atmosphere is moving in the background. You can also see the haze of Titan's high level atmosphere on the left. The visual color of Titan (when it is not evading capture) is like the orange-yellow at the dark edge of Dione.

It's cool to me that the giant gas planets have moons that would be dwarf planets if they were on their own, but the only rocky planet with a moon like that... is us.
