Thanks Ed,
Your own answer is correct.
Without flash the camera tries to compensate for low light conditions by leaving the shutter open longer and the slightest movement is detected and reproduced on your photo. The simplest answer is to steady the camera by using a tripod or trying bracing yourself against something. If your camera has a shutter priority setting, you can try setting a faster shutter speed but you'll lose some depth-of-field. I almost always use a tripod.
