It's designed for use in the kitchen to get things off high shelves. Has three steps and a curved metal piece like an upside-down U for you to hold on to. I can stand on the top step, about two feet up, and brace my legs against the U and be very stable. Or, use the lower steps when I don't need to be as high.
This is the closest thing I see on line right now: http://tinyurl.com/38fwmc But mine is white and the top bar is like a semi-circle rather than straight. I'm sure there are many variations out there. Bob =========== That's a good idea, bracing one's self against that top bar. I have a step stool sort of like that, but not as good. So I guess I will look around. Both a milk crate and a step stool would be a good idea. One for when I need to go higher. Only now I am having this mental image of me pulling out the step stool, putting it on a sidewalk, getting on top and taking shots, and all these cars driving by with people gawking at me. ;-) Oh, what the heck, people gawk at me anyway when I pull off right next to something and shoot it. I just make sure they can always see the camera so I don't get people offering me emergency road assistance. I've noticed once people see the camera they don't question what I am doing. Most be enough snap shooters out there, they know.
