I read a few books and watched postings to try learn the tricks of doing these long night exposures.

Weather was "muggy", temperature mid-50's (bl...y cold for San Diego), PZ-1P with (old) Takumar 135mm F2.5, and velbon tripod, F8 for ~8secs on Fujicolor 200 http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=2157930 I also wanted to tell those who may venture to this area, that this was just so easy to get to, behind the Il Fornaio restaurant on Coronado, is a path with splendid views of downtown SD just waiting to tickle your silver cells. All comments welcome. Thanks Ian
