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.
