Lego and other Minifigures

The final egg hatched - it was a rabbit - I was just as confused as the chicks...

Ha ha, these are excellent. I can't believe there's a whole thread just for mini figures!
 
I'll be honest, I tend to use the camera on a tripod, controlled "available light" (as in if it's a murky shot, then I'll draw the curtains as a diffuser) and maybe use a desk mini anglepoise lamp perhaps with coloured gels (nothing fancy - think quality street wrappers :LOL:) and perhaps reflectors (a sheet of A4 or a bit of silver foil maybe)

The last shot I posted was taken at f/5.6 for 2.1 seconds, which gives you some idea of the amount of light that was actually knocking around...

these things are ideal for playing about with continuous lighting - it's not as if they're running around at high speed and need flash to freeze the action...

I've even shot things pretty much purely with candlelight and a reflector or two...

The Munny and his Skeleton Minions go all Ray Harryhausen on Indy, while Spielberg and the crew keep the cameras rolling ;)




Nice one. Love the ones from Indiana Jones!. Well done!
