@ jordan: hmm but how should i do that when i am alone?

cheers Beata – Robert! the mountains are waiting for you!!
If there are any other people that you see, ask them to take the photo. Or, some cameras have the timer. Or, simply hold out the camera at arms length, and then make that award-winning photo. I’m truly impressed, sir.
