That is unless you have a mini-tripod or somewhere decent where the camera will sit untouched. For a good still night-time shot, you're talking 10 second shutters potentially; that means the camera HAS to stay exactly where it is for 10 seconds otherwise the pic will be blurry.
It is that, or, depending on your camera, shoot up the ISO to something high and get the ISO graining as a result.
A selection of my night shots:

When viewing the photographs in full, you can see the ISO graining - that's from ISO 640.
Taken on shutter speed priority, all were on 1/13 apart from the first one which was at 1/15.
Don't think they're too bad though, given that they were on cold nights and I would have been shaking a bit.
