All of them minor but they add up quickly. One thing that is most important is a sturdy tripod. The other is to utilize your exposure delay settings (put at 3 sec or the highest possible setting) and if you have a remote shutter release, that's even better but I would still use the exposure delay. And then as Scott is hinting at, during your PP be sure to play around with the sharpening levels. A little bit goes a long way. Too sharp and it will start looking grainy so play around with it. All in all, a great first try. I can tell you it's 10x better than my first attempt, that's for sure.</blockquote>
