This is neither here nor there as it wouldn't affect CA one way or another, but why 1/4000 ss? I use 1/2000 to stop a hummers wings. I agree that it is chromatic abberation. I get it on dark subjects against a light background. I see it often on tree limbs against light color sky. Hate it but don't have pp that will remove it. Maybe someday.

It is *not* a result of processing, it is a plain and simple case of Chromatic Aberation, which is due to the optical properties of your lens when shooting high contrast scenes. A UV filter won't help sorry guys.
Lightroom will get rid of this automatically, Photoshop can be convinced to remove it IIRC.

That's a very sharp, color correct lens that is hard to beat.

Don't forget, peanutg1979, after all is said and done you're images are both underexposed, as MT Shooter pointed out. You'll need to be careful of that in the future.

Exactly correct. Post processing can make this problem appear worse, but it is 100% caused by your camera's lens.
ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) has a great function that will virtually eliminate CA (Chromatic Aberration) and it's pretty automatic. No selections necessary. You can use it on JPEGs as well as RAW photos.
For a free resource, GIMP has a CA reduction plugin, and if you're shooting RAW photos you can use UFRAW to reduce CA as well. If you're interested in the GIMP options, I can send you links.
Hope that helps!!

Free GIMP is as powerful as PS, has free updates and free new versions quite often and works on Windows, Mac, BSD & Linux. There are also editions like GIMPshop that PS users might find more familiar.

Thank you all so much for all the helpful advice. I was able to fix the problem using the Lens Correction feature in Light Room. Worked like a charm and was so easy. Thanks again!!
