Not sure how bad your shake is, but you might be able to compensate by holding your arm tighter to your chest, look through your viewfinder and time your shot to when you are steady also, use a faster shutter speed like 1000/s. I have a monopod but don't use it that much, as I can be steadier holding the camera.
