I do some from time to time. So much in the way of pointers "just depends" I guess, on anything from timing, to subject, light pollution, camera type, yada yada. What kind of camera/equipment (telescope?) are you going to use and what do you want to shoot?
Currently I'm doing overnight recordings with a Sony Handycam using their Super NightShot infrared mode in order to record meteors. I put the camera on a tripod in front of an open window, manual focus to infinity (bugs flying up in front of the lens at night have a way of triggering autofocus and sometimes it stays that way after.
), wide view setting, zoomed out & leave it on record. Over the last few years I have captured 4 or 5 meteors this way. I have a couple up in our Video section.
Alas, nothing this week but not for a lack of trying.
