Your stars are elongated, which they shouldn't be at that focal length and
declination and exposure time, so either it was windy, or perhaps your
camera is not perpendicular to the light path. Do you usually get round
stars? It's very noisy, so five darks were not enough. If your darks
match your lights, bias frames are totally unnecessary, as darks contain
bias data.
