ANDREW WHYTE

Andrew Whyte is an English photographer who I found while looking through the internet for artists who relates to my theme of perspectives. His work called 'Legography' really caught my attention due to the unique perspective of the miniature lego figures living in the real world.

The pictures from this project are very unique and inspiring. The way he has set up the lego figures in the frame is very interesting because its like the lego figures are moving but he has just captured a snapshot while they go about their own business. This links perfectly with my idea of capturing lego figures in the real world as if they were part of human life. This fits perfectly with the theme of fantasy as its something you could only imagine or dream of seeing.

This first photo captures the lego figure looking into a green glass bottle that seems to have been left on the ground. The way the lego figure is looking into it is interesting as it makes you wonder if he's seen something or just investigating man made objects.

This second photo captures a lego figure walking along the beach with his camera. The way he is positioned so it looks like he's in a walking motion is interesting as its just like a human motion but with a lego figure. The way the focus of the photo is concentrated onto he beach and the figure with the blurred sea is perfect as well. In addition to, it creates a good composition to the image. 

Dirty stop-out

This third photo is of the same lego figure using his camera to capture the beautiful and composite sunset. The way the lego figure and the ground he's standing on is darkened creates a nice contrast between that and the sunset. The sunset itself is a nice capture with all the different colours giving the image a even greater composition.

This fourth photo is of the lego figure climbing the railings next to the railway line. The lego figure is again, taking a picture of the train with his camera. The way the figure is stood there is brilliant as well as the focus of the camera. The composition of the image is good as well and the angle of the shot because of the way the railing change size from left to right.
