Trooper Adventures!

Posted by Steve on January 18, 2013 No comments

A strange idea came upon me while I was getting ready for this trip. I had planned out all of the photos I was using for the 365 project, but I ran across an idea for a photo that I couldn’t pass up. I have a few Lego mini-figs and a few of the Doctor Who building block kits. They use the same scale and interlocking system, so I thought, Why not combine them! I thought it would be cute to have two of the Stormtroopers take off in the Tardis.

With my travels, it was a great chance to take them along and take some shots of them in the Tardis in different locations and situations. Thus, the Trooper Adventures was born. When I get the chance to pull these guys out and let them have fun, I do. They even brought along a friend! Keep an eye out on the Flickr Set for more adventures.

Praying Mantid!

Sarah is very happy with the garden she has in the front yard. On occasion I have taken some pictures out there of some cool looking flowers. Lately, though, there has been a flood of pesky bugs that have moved in. In order to combat this, Sarah has ordered an army! Well, an army of praying mantids. What I was expecting was this:

But what we got was these VERY tiny little mantid. They will grow to be larger, (maybe not a rideable size) but in the meantime, I get to do some Macro photography!
