 Famous Photographs Shook World Lego Magnum

I was reading bitaites - one of my cult blogs - when I stumbled upon this post by Marco, about Mike Stimpson, a curious person with two passions. He loves to take photographs and play with legos, those tiny objects that are the delight of children and adults alike. The union of these two passions resulted in a work in which Mike reproduced several famous photographs through lego constructions.

A stroll through the pages of Mike Stimpson in flickr will bring many surprises with the clear feeling that you have seen that image some place before.

These hit pretty hard when you see the 'expressions' of the legos versus the real thing. Well done.
