Second go at prime focus with Nikon D300

[molecub]

Taken last night (21st May) using my Nikon D300 thru an Astro Systems 8.5" f/5 Newtonian. This is my best shot of the evening processed with Photoshop CS3.

This second image is just a tighter crop of the first image.

All comments/criticisms welcome.

This is a single frame!!??? WOW. I am stunned. I think I am going to give it another crack through my ED 80 again then.
