2. Consider a tripod.
On the other hand, an inexpensive tripod is worth getting, especially if you have shaky
hands like mine. When I got a tripod, my satisfaction with my shots skyrocketed. For even more stability, use
your camera’s timer function with a tripod (read our introduction to tripods).
For those times you can’t carry your camera around, keep a small notebook to jot down places you’d like to
come back and photograph. Make sure to note any important details, like the lighting, so you can come back at
the same time of day or when the weather’s right. If you don’t want to carry a notebook, send yourself an email
using your cell phone with Jott.com.
