That seems like a good exposure, I've shot slower and had good results. How sturdy is your tripod?

jerm: your 400mm lens gets my 300mm lens,although i have crop factor of 2.0 to your 1.6(i think)-which gives you 640mm equiv. maybe you are a little closer in colorado than in michigan.

Photo is very good, did you use a remote shutter release or time delay?

Jacks, you could also use the mirror lockup feature of your camera to prevent the camera shake. I know for some canon dslr it would be in the advanced configuration menus. I don't know how to do it on other cameras. You just have to look for that in your camera manual.
Nice pics. The sunset is awesome.
