A PLACE TO STAND

Ever found that once you have your camera in just the right position that you can’t quite see the very top of the ground glass. It is important to get up there so you can see if your foreground is in focus. Never fails, you need just a little more to get a good view. Well, we found a neat accessory that just may save the day for you.

We discovered a nifty little folding step stool at Wal-Mart. We hauled a couple of these with us on our last trip and though I never used mine, Susan found it very helpful with several of her photographic efforts. It was especially useful for her and the pano format cameras she uses.  She made use of the step several times when she needed a little height working with difficult setups.

Here is more information from the Wal-Mart web site;
