That tripod is not something you can buy but it's made from different Lego components (including from the Technics range).

I was shooting at a blacksmith's as part of a commercial project- had to grab a shot amongst the industrial surroundings.

Safety First

Living close to the beach there's plenty of sunset opportunities; this is a new perspective for me though.

Seaside Sunset

Those very cold days we had a couple of weeks back left this interesting texture on a frozen puddle.

Treading on...

Another reflection on recent weather

Bleak

In the end, Friday was not quite as bad as the Mayans predicted

Apocalyptic

Absolutely brilliant, just started getting a few of the lego mini figures. Where would i get the camera from that your little guys holding? Great idea.

Sorry just found them on eBay just got to decide now who i put the camera with, I'm thinking darth vader or someone similar.

So I took the 'daily' challenge and I'm now one month in to my Legography iPhone 365. Here's my top five from January.

This waterfront wall in Portsmouth has just had colourful new lights installed.

Illuminated

Seems the little guy is taking after me in his fascination for a bit of exploring!

You never know...

Cracking sunset at the beach huts, then...

T-shirt weather

...the very next day, it snowed!

Whiteout

Spotted this one morning on the school run and couldn't resist a bit of fun- 19 attempts, though, to get the camera falling into a decent place in the pic!

Yell 'Ow!'

Thanks for looking

Stuart2312_80 · 02-02-2013, 07:00

Brilliant absolutely love them.

Tori_T · 02-02-2013, 21:27

Will your li'l togger be making a personal injury claim against the litter lout who dropped that?

smithmgcsmith · 03-02-2013, 07:34

Love these....my son has tons of lego and never thought to use them in this way, may have to start borrowing some of his figures.

Sam_W · 26-02-2013, 12:03

Awesome work

makes me want to get a Lego man and a camera for myself

Seen your pictures made the dailymail: click me

Red9R · 26-02-2013, 12:42

What a brilliant set every one of these made me smile, thanks!
As a few others have said I may just have to nick the idea to put a bit of fun back into my photography

dubzter · 26-02-2013, 12:49

Well done on getting an article written in the paper

Guys, we have had to remove/edit a few posts, as an image embedded here was from a site google considers dangerous and as a malware distributor. All cleaned up now and apologies if anyone lost a post while we tracked it down.

starkersclark · 26-02-2013, 19:40

Just saw the pictures in the Daily Mail, nice one

AndWhyNot · 27-02-2013, 10:19 **Thread Starter**

Thanks all for the latest comments. Was good to see Legography hit the headlines in the Mail and the Sun yesterday, along with my local rag and a radio interview.

As 365s go, I think I've managed to pick an easy one. Sure, there's my own pressure to complete it but it's stressfree and so easy to find a daily subject. Here's a couple more since the last update.

In the pink

Balloon

Back in the day

A darker side

Shadow Hunter

And the title for this one says it all. Dedicated to anyone who's ever missed a photographic moment with their camera- and I think that's probably all of us!

Ain't easy when it's breezy

Thanks for looking - only another 10 months to go!

drooke · 28-02-2013, 20:40

These are great shots, I really like them. Keep up the good work!

Virtualcolm · 28-02-2013, 21:07

Fantastic.
I love them

-Paul- · 28-02-2013, 21:27

They are all brilliant! But#4 is superb and had me LOL! Keep up the great work!

DrRusty · 05-03-2013, 06:36

Did he enjoy his day out at Focus ?

AndWhyNot · 05-03-2013, 13:30 **Thread Starter**

Yes, really

Tori_T · 05-03-2013, 14:02

He doesn't look overly impressed being in there.

Did Focus accept his £ego$ or did you have to lend him a tenner?

vince31 · 05-03-2013, 17:19

Some awesome and creative shots Andrew

whipspeed · 05-03-2013, 19:59

Very, very creative. A real inspiration to the rest of us who enjoy playing with toys

I'd love to tell you it was his smile but you can see that's not true. The desk staff were great about it, actually. A bit bemused at first but I showed them the Daily Mail feature on my iPad and they went for it. The little fella even made it onto the Focus news page & twitter feed!

Tori_T · 06-03-2013, 10:10

So...
Now he's on their system, will he be getting his own junk mail from photographic companies?

(and you should post his mugshot in the Spotted a Togger thread.

DrRusty · 06-03-2013, 19:25

The little man has a day trip out to Focus 2013 by RJ Fletcher, on Flickr

Ok not quite so smart but my little chap took in the sights as well. Here he is lining up a shot of the Nixon stand.
