Chris, not bad tracking for unguided at 75secs. Was the moon up when you took tbese shots? Always difficult to capture faint nebulosity under a gibbous moon. Even if below the horizon moon glow can wash out your shots so you've done well. I'd back off a little on the background density but that's a personal choice, it can help show more faint nebulosity but the moon was probably reducing the transparency already. I like the colours in the Triffid.
