That's not bad at all for a mirror lens combo. Is it the older tamron TC?
The weather here is too cold to shot at night, esp the moon and heavy tripod was needed.

Yes the Tamron SP 500/8 is a mirror lens and the tele-convertor is the old type for Pentax -S =screw mount.
This is my 2nd attempt a little later...I had a bag of porridge sitting on the lens /camera trying to dampen any movement as I don't have a bean bag handy.. ..and I had no bags of rice in the cupboard.I also used the self timer...I did some post processing on this bumping the contrast and brightness.
I had the ISO at 100 and the speed was 20 or 30.

These last 2 are without the tele-convertor, but still on a tripod and using the timer. I forgot to mention I use an older Velbon VG-3 aluminum tripod.

Soft images. As well as my pics taken this summer with ZM-5CA 500/8 on Sony A55 using M42 adapter.
ISO-100, 1/80, -2EV.
Also tripod + self timer. Also PPed - auto levels and sharpness +20 in LightRoom. I forgot to turn off the built-in stabilizer, although not sure that it could help.

Nice images!
I found the 01F TC last night but the cloud came in...I wanted to compare the TC's to see if there was any improvement on sharpness.As both are SP I assume both should be above average (?).The Pentax K200D automatically turns off the anti shake / stabilizer setting when the timer is activated.

Oh, nice ! 
Here is one shot with the 5D MkII and the Tamron SP 500 F8, handheld at iso 1250, and cropped.
It was at the end of august. Speed was 1/1000.
I was surprised to obtain this IQ.

I took permission to try one edit, hope it doesn't bother you.
If it does just tell me, I will remove it.
I would have liked using a more photorealistic witch, but it looks like not many people takes photos of witch flying on their broomsticks, and shares them for free
