Sorry cant help with the blurry photos but depending on your time for a photo have your tried your timer, sometimes that can help you to get steady..

The only other suggestion I have for holding it steady and this depends on whether you have a digital or not is to, use the eypiece if its a digital, the other things is to experient with how you hold the camera and to maybe bring your arms in closer to ur body, sometimes that helps with steadyness.
