Looks good, are you sure you're hands weren't moving a little. I would think the worst dig camera wouldn't look blurry.

Here is the trick to keeping your camara steady. Find a broom stick, or any other stick, about five feet long. Then hold the camara either against its side with your left hand, or on top of it, with the other end of the stick on the ground. Presto! No more blurry pictures from shaking. This will work from virtually any angle you want to use, too, from ground level to high vantage points. Just slide your left hand up or down the stick, while running the camara from the other hand.
