You'd be surprised how many of my pictures I've posted to my gallery were taken with this method. As I'm driving, I lean one hand out the window with the camera and snap off a picture! The string wrapped around my finger is my safety strap attached to the camera (even though it's small), just in case I drop the camera I'll still have at least a CHANCE of it not hitting the street below. This time, I took a picture of the rear-view mirror showing yours truly. :)
