I too had trouble at first and everyone suggester taking them at higher F stop and real slow speed but I could never get a good photo. MT Shooter said that he took them at F8 from 250 sec and up at ISO 200 that works great for me and I usually get best results at about 320sec. My eyes aren't too good so I sometimes have aa problem getting the focus sharp.
