Long Exposure

The intent was to play with lighting ‘stars’ with my new-to-me lens, and I was angry with the exposure being ‘ruined’ by traffic. Now it’s a fave

Both great images but that pano is amazing. Thanks so much for sharing your settings as well!

These are stunning captures JayRay. I've tried unsuccessfully to capture night images to date. Thanks for sharing them along with your settings, it's so helpful!

"Long Exposure"
I still don't have an ND filter for this particular lens, so these were taken without a filter.
These are my longest exposures ..

"Long exposure" is relative to distance, direction and speed.
For example, this shot of the Golden Gate was a 15 or 30 second exposure at night (on film, with a tripod and timer)...
And, while most of the lighthouse image below wasn't moving and camera was on a tripod, I wanted to sure to get the one thing that was moving (the light) and used a couple seconds exposure during twilight (also shot on film)...
But for the image below I wanted just a sense of movement and used a 1/30 shutter speed combined with a hand held slow pan and some fill flash (2nd curtain sync)...
And for the shot below I wanted to cause some background blur, but with a faster moving subject I only "dragged the shutter" and panned at 1/50 (probably could have gone slower for even more blur to the background, though the percentage of shots that come out good drops a lot when I do that)...
By the way, I was shooting with two cameras at that autocross event. On the other camera, I used a faster shutter (1/500) to freeze movement for shots like this one:
It's fun to experiment, although it doesn't always work out ... as in the photo below shot at 1/25:

To me the setting at first seemed to be totally wrong for the photos posted. Without a ND filter the closest I can get to your setting is F22. Surprisingly, to me, it gave me an okay shot on an overcast day. Thank you for sharing. I still have much to learn about photography.
