Tripod long shutter speed.

Someone else said this. If you don't have a remote, set the timer so you don't cause camera shake when you press the shutter

And best go for smaller apertures but longer exposures. Makes light sources look better (more reason why a tripod is needed and you best set the camera on timer so release is not combined with you pushing that button).
