Michael, we were down that way this morning ourselves. Virgs and I drove 215 or so km's and came up wit fog and cloud and more fog. Hoping for better conditions tomorrow for our last chance at getting a great shot.
Shelley, these exposures were around the 40 second mark with a high ISO. Aim for something like 2000 and up if you can if not use a longer exposure and use a lower ISO to reduce noise. To focus use a bright object in the focus box. I use a distant light (stars don't work but lights do though) to keep the focus right and then take the lens of auto focus and go to manual. That will get you in the box seat. Don't bother with a mask and infinity is often not right from one camera to the next. Best of luck with your endeavours.
