Baro-nite and Ivoirie, Thank you for the kind words and for the information on Jupiter's moons. I took the picture last night, when Jupiter was close to the moon (I would not otherwise have been able to locate/identify it).
Thank you for the tips on exposure settings. I went out to try them tonight, but it is slightly cloudy and I will have to try again when the sky is clearer.
The Tokina is not a mirror lens, it is a t-mount, preset lens. An impulse eBay purchase that has been sitting around waiting for the Q to make it useful. lol
