Yer, it wasnt as clear as i wanted anyway, i sat in the cold for ages with the tripod waiting for some clouds to pass.. I had to use live view to get focus and had to magnify the preview to ensure focus, which on the kit lens was like a twitch in the wrong direction and it was a blur.
I was surprised at the fact that i didnt really need a long exposure
I really wanted to get closer, but i dont know how without sacrificing the quality any further.
