Night Shots

I have been messing around with night time photography lately so I thought I would share with you folks. :)
Some of you may have already seen these on facebook.

Wish I had a wider lens for this shot! I was just about in the deep ditch behind the camera with this one.

So, what camera and settings did you use? Stock lens was it? I've tries f/8 for the clarity, ISO 100 to 400, 30s 18mm with some dropping to f/4 but its getting the good weather and setting. Wonderful shots too btw ;-)

Its an old Canon EOS 400D with the old 18-55mm MkII Kit lens. I have been thinking of getting a replacement lens (Tamaron 17-50mm) and even thought about upgrading to the 60D or 70D. But the 70D has just come out and costs a small fortune. So I will wait a while and see when it comes down in price.

These photos are captured mostly in manual or Shutter Priority. I have been told that for star shots that a higher ISO (400D can only go up to 1600 ISO), larger aperture are good. Especially for the Milky Way. I am still learning how to take good night shots.
