Tip #7 Self Timer

Learn how to use your camera's timer. If your camera doesn't have one, feel fry to have yourself a good cry. I positioned my camera on a rock, plotted out a point on the rock it was pointing to that I knew would be in the frame, and hit the shutter button. Ten seconds later I was plastered against the rock and the shutter opened and closed. The picture isn't in focus because I didn't focus it properly before I jumped into the frame, but I like the the slight blur in the picture. It goes with the sense of movement of the picture.
