My view looked like this

As you may know I have talked about collimation recently and this is related to it.

This photo is very close to the view I got from my telescope ( 6 SE ) the other night in between the clouds, conditions were reasonable but not great.

If my telescope was a little out of collimation would I get an image this this, or is this the type of image expected for a scope with good collimation ?

I saw an image like this, maybe a touch better with my 25mm X 60
with the 9mm the image was like this but just larger. X166
