Fascinating 365 project by UK photographer

February 27th, 2014
I saw this link on Facebook and had a look. What an amazing idea for a 365 project, that I just had to share it with this community.

"UK-based photographer Andrew Whyte has documented the adventures of a brave lone LEGO photographer in his “The Legographer” photo series. The process behind Whyte’s photos is so simple that almost anyone could do it. He carries the Legographer with him wherever he goes and, when he finds a good location, snaps a picture of him in action with his Iphone 4S. The Legographer has traveled all around the UK and the world in Whyte’s pocket." http://www.boredpanda.com/legographer-lego-photography-andrew-whyte/

What struck me most about the pictures is the vantage point used. It really gives a completely different perspective on everyday things, using just a smartphone. In fact, I think it works because of the smartphone!

The other feature is the humour in the shots. I love the one where the Lego figure has a rain coat on!

Anyway, I loved it, it made me laugh and smile. His web site has more photos for those who like me were fascinated and inspired! http://www.longexposures.co.uk/legography

Yes, Debs, your link wasn't working. Thanks Laurie. Thanks for posting @dibzgreasley - lovely images, and as you say the pov from the legographer works so well too.

That's fantastic. Makes you wish you had thought of it yourself. I will certainly be looking for something pocket sized that I can use in the same way, just for fun.
