Hi Polo
I assume your talking about exposures of a second or more then a steady support like a tripod is a must. Why be shy of using a tripod ? I lug a Manfrotto 55, Canon 20D, 300mm F4 and x1.4TC around with me most of the time. Sure you get the odd look but most people don't notice.
Don has pointed to tips on exposure but as the light was very bright at times over the weekend it maybe you would never get a correct exposure with a very slow shutter speed. In that case a polarising filter attached to the lens would lose you 3 stops of light or use a ND (Neutral Density) filter.
