night skies-

Thanks Jon,
that's what I like about this forum, there is always plenty of expert help.

Just happened to come across one of Ben's shots, a good example for high ISO:

Taking shorter exposures and stacking helps avoid this also (more exposures gives more read noise... usually not a problem)

I was reading something similar today- the EOS M has a built in feature that does this allowing handheld night shots, and for HDR mode.

At this time I don't think I have anything I can stack images with, but I can take some shots and experiment.
maybe DPP HDR tool.

see he mentions cleaning noise up with Lightroom.
I have LR4.1 but haven't really used it yet.. I'll have to try and make an effort to look into it more.
