 I had some technical difficulties without a tripod and having to guess on the aim.
I pushed my camera down on top of my camera bag and hoped for the best. Took about 100 shots all together, with most of them being way off in composition (cut the bottom off half of them).

Thanks all for the great comments!

Wish I could have used this one:
