Mate, you'll need a sturdy tripod and bulb setting if possible. Patience is also a good feature to have. Have a look under "new to photography" and also the "Night - Astro" section, if you find some shots in the night - astro forum, most, not all, should have EXIF data, and or you can post a question to the person whom posted the pic. Every camera is different, and every scene calls for something different, daytime - night time, low light and so on. EXIF will help you narrow down these settings to your situation, but use as a quide only, you'll need to find what works for your situation, Normally bulb setting infinite focus and play with ISO. Start around 200 ISO depending on available light.

Persistance is the key.
