Lego characters make the most amazing subjects, they really do. It’s just like photographing people, but on a smaller scale. They’re more reliable, too. They show up, on time, do whatever you want them to, and don’t try to defame you all over the media. So, it’s no wonder they’re such a popular subject. They’re a particular favourite for photographer Juhamatti Vahdersalo. Although, he’s gonna quite dark with his Lego characters. But why not? Nobody said the world in which toys live has to be all unicorns and rainbows. And these certainly aren’t.
It’s quite fascinating to see Lego characters like this. Often they’re injected into real world scenes interacting with every day objects. Or they’re straight out of the movies. So it’s great to see these little people in such unusual scenarios.
I think they are very cool. The attention to detail on these tiny scenes is just fantastic. Although I’ll probably never look at a Lego character again in quite the same way now. If you want to find out more about Juhamatti and his work, head on over to his website or follow his creations on Facebook.
