photography iso explained

Can you share any resources which explain how to take night photography?
Hey, I have a Canon T70. In a nutshell, it’s my 1980′s 35mm SLR Camera, with a ton of programmable features that you have with just about any SLR, such as the Aperture, ISO, Shutter speed, etc. I have a tripod to take pictures at night, and I am really excited to do so. However, I don’t know how to properly take them. I tested out a roll, and took about 10 pictures, and only 1 came out =[
What are some good sites or links, or even just some advice that you could share in helping me? Thanks, I really appreciate the answers. Photography is my passion.
I do have the Canon speedlite 277T. I have avoided using the flash, and I haven’t learned how to use it yet, but I will. Thanks for the tip!
I have successfully used the FotoSharp (fotosharp.com) Day & Night Exposure Guide for years. Use your camera in Manual Mode so you can set everything yourself.
Here is but one example, ‘City Skyline In Distance’:
ISO 100
f5.6 @ 15 seconds
f8 @ 30 seconds
f11 @ 60 seconds
ISO 200
f5.6 @ 8 seconds
f8 @ 115 seconds
f11 @ 30 seconds
EDIT: Read my answer, DigiDoc and you’ll see its not a guessing game. Check my 2 examples at flickr.com/photos/8184104@N06
