    Hi sev, VERY simple. I put a chair on a table (Yes, you can do that) and then you put the camera on it and you manual focus with magnified mode so that focus is as precise as it gets. Then well, I squeeze the trigger. :)

    Oh, and also, I make sure that the resulting picture has a good exposure. AS it normally has. This one was a bit overexposed as the light was a bit harsh on his face. And I used a low ISO which resulted in a long shutter speed and a blurry dog, and slight blur to his face.

    Hope it helps.
