Exhale and hold your breath while shooting.

Reason: breathing moves your body and the camera; taking a breath out (or partway out) and holding at the end of the exhale minimizes that motion so you get a steadier shot. Tip: don’t hold for too long — breathe normally between frames, or use a tripod/remote release for longer exposures.
