Great shot, Noel. I love those colors, and your lighting effect. Beware! Yesterday I picked up my ladder and got stung by a wasp who was nesting under one of the steps :-)

  You funny, crazy man! This is priceless! I love that you had them 'under the spotlight' - I guess that was to make them nervous so the guilty one would fess up!

  Thank you Steve, SJ, Adilson, Jim, Connie, Jenny, Judy, Cindy, Dan, Laura, Susan, Marsha, Goshka, and Debby!

Steve: I got stung by a wasp sitting on a telephone. Why can't wasps be cool? If I wanted to kill one, it'd be dead. They wouldn't know what hit 'em. A slight brush against their prescious body is not a sign of agression. Jeez...

Dan: I tried to layer a "line-up grid" over the ladders, but sometimes a good idea can only be realized in the mind.

Marsha: Getting a ladder to drop a dime on another ladder just will not happen. Ladders are a tight-knit group. They will NEVER step above that LAST STEP.

  Thank you kindly, Linda! I love those lighting filters, although I feel like a fraud because they are sooooo real!

  Thanks Kerby, Jane, Cathy, Carla, and Karen!

Karen: These are NOT innocent ladders by any stretch of the imagination. Each and every one conveniently looks the other way when someone steps above the DO NOT STEP ABOVE THE STEP warning. Innocent? I think not!
