imaging mars problem

i had a go at trying to image mars tonight and i managed to get in the FOV of the chip. Focused the telescope so mars was a round ball but i could not picked up any surface detail on the screen just a round orange ball of light. What am i doing wrong? My collimation is out? I had some dew on my corrector plate.

telescope used: C14

Camera: DBK618
