These pics were taken in our backyard a few nights ago. We were all sitting around the fire hanging out, and I thought the fireplace would make a good picture, so the camera came out, and I snapped a few shots.

The first two pics were taken with a 30 second shutter speed, at F10, and 800 ISO. The last pic was taken with a 20 sec. shutter speed, at F10, and 800 ISO.

Our family is on the right side, but of course, you cant see them.

He's a suggestion.

Tripod
AV Mode
Cable release (or self timer)
ISO 100
F11, F9, F7.1

Thank you for the suggestions, I used all of them except for ISO 100, and the F stop. What's wrong with F10

Nothing is wrong with F10...just try some different settings and see what ya get.

Try F5.6 and a bit brighter image, same exposure time. Never seen anything like this before, more like a lantern than a fire, looks a cosy but dangerous contraption to me, obviously not an indoor shot.

Thank you for all of your advice.
