One reason we love browsing the DCist photo pool every day is that it’s not just full of great images by super talented photographers, but that you guys catch the weirdly hilarious, kinda disturbing, or plainly adorable moments in the city. Flickr user LaTur’s photo falls into the first category, with this strange set-up of a bright red construction crane toting a tiny yellow ladder. Commenter dyetochange set it up perfectly:

to whom it may concern:

please don’t steal my ladder. i put it up here so you couldn’t touch it.
