Your opinions please

These two images are very close to what i actually see through the eyepiece of my 6 SE at x166
Conditions were not good tonight, rain earlier, windy and clouds around, been like this since i have had my scope, 2 months, oh yes and very humid tonight, i was on the balcony without a shirt, really hot night.
Anyway from these images would you say that its basically what to expect from a 6 inch in these conditions or do you think more should be seen? ( only took it outside about 1/2 before use, due to weather )
Its just that i have never looked through any other telescope so i wonder are my optics ok a
Or is there a problem ? My collimation seems good to me.
If you have a 6SE i would especially appreciate your thoughts.

Many thanks.
