Does my SCT require collimating?

Hi all,

After my hair pulling session last Friday night, I didn't end up heading back out on the weekend to give it another go.

I did however get a quick snap of something I am unsure about from Friday night.

Whether I am using an eyepiece or prime focus with a camera, I notice the attached image when looking at an out of focus star.

Is it just out of collimation?

Cheers
Sam
