Rho Ophiuchus in moon light

Not been feeling great all week with some sort of throat infection, so I decided that despite this I would take some subs of Rho Ophiuchus region with my D3 and my 300mm lens. There were quite a few subs that had elongated stars due to me putting the whole kit on a ball head which is only rated to 5 kgs. LOL Time for some rings to hold it into position.

Focus was not totally spot on either but overall I am happy with the final result so far. This is taken with an unmodded CMOS sensor and yet there is quite a bit of lovely colour in the image. See processing makes a huge difference.
