Below are some tips for nightscape photography

1.Always use a steady tripod and remote release. Obviously you wont be able to hold a camera steady enough for 8 minutes without them.
2.You need to set your SLR camera to BULB. This will enable you to keep the exposure open for longer than 30 seconds.
3.Your camera will take just as long to process the image afterwards. Therefore if you take the photograph over 3 minutes exposure, the camera will actually take 6 minutes to complete the shot.
4.Turn on your cameras noise reduction setting (if it has one). Long exposure night shots are known for high noise.
So after taking a few under or over exposed shots or wobbly ones where a gust of wind blows at the wrong moment you might end up with a keeper.

Well here is my try at it. Actually I have been trying forever and I am still not satisfied. It works great for lightning too. It only lightninged once but this method worked pretty well. I tried forever to get as it flashed with my remote and just couldn't do it so I finally put it on bulb and let her buck.

My camera is for pleasure, not for pressure
