Your shot is the victim of
chromatic aberration. There was a discussion of this in the
Nikon D50 Users Flickr group just a few days ago. Basically, what was said was that the aperture was the biggest contributer to CA (Chromatic abberation). This
article on CA is way more technical, but explains it much more fully than the wikipedia article. So, what you can do in the future is stop down the aperture a bit and try to expose for the highlights (e.g. use the little blinky feature).
Great shot by the way
