Position really good, I think -- I like the geometry..
keep at it - I think I like this one better than the second -

Yup. Will try again. Heck it's the first time  I've used my remote. Which
turned out to be supereasy.

positioning to take  shots is very limited.

Great start and worthy of  revisiting. The IS thing can go either way and
Canon may be in the leave on  all the time for longer lenses but I would
try it w/o. Next time stay there  until it gets really dark; these
cameras have the eyes of an owl.   Mirror lock-up to limit vibration
might make a difference but I have never  tried it. Perfection is
illusive in night photography. Enough platitudes to  keep you going back,
I hope.

Okay, I took a stab at night  photography of the  local oil refinery.

I used a tripod,  remote, 2 second timer setting, shot  in manual, ISO
100,
f/11, and  1/4 a second (lower than that I wasn't getting  enough  light).

And I found my best results were right before it  got  really dark. But
they
came out not very sharp (although I used  a good lens). As  I drove away I
realized I forgot to turn off the  lens IS (I used a Canon). So I  guess I
have to try again with it  off and see if I do  better.

Any   suggestions about what different f stops, etc. to use for a better
  result,  please feel free to let me know.
