Triffid using autoguiding

Hi

This is my first attempt at autoguiding. I used a DFK colour camera on the back of a C11 using phd guiding. The image was taken with a Megrez 72 and Canon 450d with a CLS filter attached. I only managed 6 x 7 minutes frames befoe the weather moved in . Taken from the MPAS site at the Briars,Mornington, last night.
I think I may need a more sensitive guider as the colour camera struggled to find guide stars. Anyone using the Orion Solitaire?
