for night shots like these i usually use a aperture of about F9 - F11.
so the cam will select the proper amt of exposure time.

sometimes if the photos turn out not as bright as u want, you could switch to manual mode then make shutter open longer.

of course a good steady tripod is essential
and i used mirror lock up and remote shuttter release for some of the pictures.
