If you're using Canon Remote Capture software for remote release you may want to use a Task shooting or write a small app to delay a single release, say to take a picture of you or a group where you want to be in a picture as well.

It took me five minutes to write a small script. You can save it as .app and use from any folder.
Adjust a delay according to your needs.
View Codetell application "RemoteCapture Task.app"
activate
end tell
-- delay in seconds after you start the program
delay 9
tell application "System Events"
tell process "RemoteCapture Task"
keystroke "r" using {command down}
end tell
end tell


it's that easy

Just to add a feature to this applescript, you could run a loop to keep on taking pictures until app is closed:

View Codetell application "RemoteCapture Task.app"
activate
end tell
-- delay in seconds after you start the program
delay 9
set progEnd to false
tell application "System Events"
tell process "RemoteCapture Task"
repeat until progEnd is true
keystroke "r" using {command down}
-- this is delay between shots
delay 5
end repeat
end tell
end tell


and buttons could be added after each loop "Cancel" "OK" "Stop" etc.There's no place like ~
