This is the first time i have taken anything at night, so pointers would be greatly appreciated. How do you not get the rainbow circle around the lights?

I always aim to use a tripod and cable release (and if I remember, mirror lockup), iso 100, and around f/8-16. I'll then play around with the shutter speed depending on light conditions. I've posted some of my attempts in the Edinburgh at Christmas thread.
