[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 123842, member: 9240"] You've come to the right place but are just looking in the wrong forum. There's a [URL="http://nikonites.com/low-light-night/"]Low Light & Night[/URL] forum that has several threads dedicated to How-To suggestions, many with links to great blogs about it. Have a look over there. Two keys for the gear you want are 1) bright glass (f1.4-2) and 2) low noise with high ISO on the camera. The D3100 should work for most of your needs, but you're going to want something like a 28mm f1.8. A lot of night photography relies on you setting things yourself because it's tough to autofocus in the dark, so don't be afraid to look for old, bright manual lenses as well since they can save you some money if that's all you want to use them for.
